You can't execute Java code from a Javascript function directly.
All you can do is have the Javascript generate an Http request to a servlet which can execute the Java code for you and optionally return something which your Javascript could then use to generate content for your page.

It is tricky, but it can be done. Can't tell you how we solved it as the code is not mine to give away.

As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.
