fetching data from the database

  #1  
Jun 26th, 2007
Hi,

I have written a jsp file to fetch data from a database table and display it in the form of a table in jsp. The idea is to generate a dynamic table. I have written the following code.
#
<%@page import="java.sql.*"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>The alert table</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Alerts</h1>
<%
Connection conn = null;
ResultSet rs1 = null;
Statement stmt = null;
ResultSetMetaData rsmd = null;
String query="select * from alertdata";

try {
Class c = Class.forName("org.postgresql.driver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://192.168.128.150:5432/thirdeye", "postgres", "postgres");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
rs1 = stmt.executeQuery(query);

int columns=0;
rsmd = rs1.getMetaData();
columns = rsmd.getColumnCount();
}
catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("Error occurred " + e);
}
%>
<table width="90%" border="1">
<tr>
<% // for the header cells
try {
for (int i=1; i<=columns; i++) {
out.write("<th>" + rsmd.getColumnLabel(i) + "</th>");
}
%>
</tr>


<% // for each row in the database table
while (rs1.next()) {
out.write("<tr>");
for (int i=1; i<=columns; i++) {
out.write("<td>" + rs1.getString(i) + "</td>");
}
out.write("</tr>");
}

// close the connection and the statement
stmt.close();
conn.close();
}
catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("Error " + e);
}

finally {
try {
if (stmt != null)
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
try {
if (conn != null)
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {}
}

%>
</table>
</body>
</html>
#

However this gives me an error, cannot resolve columns.

Please help.
