I don't know much about jsp, but I would think this would be proper:

 function sortResults(sortOption) {
    <% if(request.getAttribute("id")!=null){
             String pId = (String)request.getAttribute("id");
       }
    %>
       var proId= '<%=pId%>';
    }

Open in new window

Or this, depending on which part is javascript and which is jsp

function sortResults(sortOption) {
    if(request.getAttribute("id")!=null){
    <%
             String pId = (String)request.getAttribute("id");
    %>
       var proId= '<%=pId%>';
    }
    }

  <%
    }%>
    }

it's not working...

i am getting the request.getAttribute("id") value but i am not able to assign this value into javascript varible

i but some debug statement then i can see the value coming into this.
when i add the code var proId= '<%=pId%>'; my jsp page itself is not opening just saying null in this Jsp
