How can I read/access a JSP variable from JavaScript?
Advertisement
Answer
alert("${variable}");
or
alert("<%=var%>");
or full example
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function access(){
<% String str="Hello World"; %>
var s="<%=str%>";
alert(s);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="access()">
</body>
</html>
Note: sanitize the input before rendering it, it may open whole lot of XSS possibilities
