Passing values from javascript to JSP

[RAKESH BALAIAH]

I am working on a project in which i need to receive values from the user and display it dynamically below the form. After the user confirms to save it i need to save all those values in database..

I am using Javascript to display the values as they enter.But i dont know how to send those array of values to the JSP page so that i can store them in the database.

I'm stuck.. Kindly help me out.. :(

This is similar to a shopping cart where the user data needs to be displayed dynamically in the same page as and when the user selects. I've been asked to use JavaScript for the cart and after receiving final confirmation from the user the data needs to be stored in the database using JSP..

Kindly help me out.. Am really really stuck.. :(

Either you have to use Ajax or Form submission to pass the values. Use some hidden input fields and assign the values in the text box.

Thanks Ramanan..
I really like your advice..
But i've constraint that i should complete this project using JSP and javascript alone..
So if u can give me a better solution i would be much glad..

I guess setting a hidden variable with the JS in a Form doesn't uses any language.

Ex:

HTML:

<input type="hidden" name="usrName" id="usrName" />

JS:

var frmElement = document.getElementById('usrName');
frmElement.value=yourArray;

JSP:

String str = request.getParameter('usrName').toString();
