I have solved the problem, but ran into another one.

If a servlet gets rendered the same way a jsp does, if i place the jsp usebean tags in the servlet, shouldnt the bean display in the servlet?

I have looked around this site but have not found anything to help me.

I have a jsp page which takes user input, the page is then posted to a servlet using ajax, the servlet then sets a bean value.

My problem is that when i go back to the main page, the bean value is not displaying in the jsp page.
I created a Bean class which has my setter and getter methods, and a servlet which sets the bean value.

in the servlet i used the following to set the value of the bean

SubscriberBean subscriberBeanRef = new SubscriberBean();
subscriberNameVar = request.getParameter("subscriberName");
subscriberBeanRef.setsubscriberName(subscriberNameVar);

In my jsp i use the jsp usebean tag which imports my bean class to get the value, and i set the scope to session. Is that correct?

I have read that i should set the httpsession to set the attribute, i have tried that as well, but still no results in my jsp page.
code used for setting the session attribute.

String subscriberNameVar;
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
subscriberNameVar = request.getParameter("subscriberName");
session.setAttribute("subscriberName", subscriberNameVar);

I have no clue what i m doing wrong please help

Thanx

Hi

I am using ajax and jsp in my web application.
The user is required to fill out a few forms, for this i am using ajax to go through the forms, on one of the forms i need to set the session bean value and i am unsure as to how to do that.

Do i submit the form to a servlet then cause the servlet to redirect to a particular page within the specified div tag.

I have to use struts 1.1 though.

any help will be appreciated.
Thanx
