request.getParameter();

[pelegk1]

i am using request.getParameter("myName&quot in my jsp page.
when i do in a javascript function :
var x,y;
x= <%= request.getParameter(&quot;myName&quot %> //-->> i get NULL
y=<%=myName%> // -->> i am reciving my name as it was passed to the page!!!

what is that!
why x get NULL
and y get's a value????
thanks in advance

what is myName? is it an object or a JSP variable that you declare on the same page?

yup see if myName is declared anywhere before...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

x= &quot;<%= request.getParameter(&quot;myName&quot %>&quot;;

if i already have a request.getparameter() at the earlier part of the page i.e, String myname = request.getParameter(&quot;myname&quot;

u only have to display it using <%=myname%>

does this helps?
