Thank you. Both approaches work. Regarding minimizing scriptlet code, I completely agree. However, I'm a front end developer whose focus is on DHTML. So any quick way to get the Java developers' code to work with my front end stuff will work for me.

Hi. I don't know much about JSTL, but someone with some knowledge was trying to help me out. Basically I'm trying to set a variable in JSTL with value equal to something referenced by a &lt;fmt&gt; tag. Then I try to get the value of this variable in a scriptlet through the pageContext. The code below doesn't work, however. All I'm getting is an empty string in the scriptlet. Any help would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;c:set var=&quot;selectedValuePresente<wbr />d&quot; value=&quot;&lt;fmt:message key='&lt;%= ResourceKeys.DF_SELECT %&gt;'/&gt;&quot; /&gt;<br />
<br />
&lt;%<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;String selectedValuePresented = String.valueOf (pageContext.getAttribute(<wbr />&quot;selectedV<wbr />aluePresen<wbr />ted&quot;));<br />

Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is a specification defining a collection of Java-based server and client technologies and how they interoperate. Java EE specifies server and client architectures and uses profiles to define technology sets targeted at specific classes of applications. All Java EE profiles share a set of common features, such as naming and resource injection, packaging rules and security requirements.

Java EE

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.
