Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

I have an index.html page that gives the users the option to select any number of items from a selection box.

When the user clicks the submit button, my servlet dynamically creates a form and displays the user selections along with a textbox beside each of the selections (ie: if they choose 1 option, there is only 1 tb, if they choose 3, there are 3 tbs...).

The textbox is going to take an int and will serve as a quantity value that I will do a calculation with and display the total on the same servlet page (or should I send it to a new html or servlet??)

How can I get the values from the textboxes that are generated by my servlet?

Here is my code for creating the textbox, giving each one a unique id.

out.print("<td rowspan=\"2\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"number\" id=\""+i+"\" value=\"1\" style=\"width:50px;height:23px;font-weight:bold;\" /></td>");
