How to pass a JavaScript variable into a java method
843836Aug 4 2003 — edited Aug 4 2003I would like to know how to pass a JavaScript variable into a java method with in a <% %> tag inside a JSP file like so:
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
<html>
<head>
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
myValue = someDynamicValue;
<% System.out.println(myValue)%>
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
obviously "System.out.println(myValue)" will not work because myValue is seen as a java variable and not a JavaScript variable.
I would like to know how to let the jsp file, that I wrote in the above code, see myValue as a JavaScript variable and not a java variable so that I can pass it to a java method.
NOTE: the java method does not have to be a println() method, it can be any method of my choice.
NOTE: someDynamicValue is a JavaScript value that can dynamically change
