Hard to know which JSP version you're using without knowing which Tomcat version, and which version number you have in your web.xml. It's usually a good idea to tell us everything about your environment, including exact Tomcat, OS, JVM and any relevant library versions. If you want to use EL scripting then you may also need to check it's enabled by default (jsp-config section of web.xml if memory servers) p P.S. Also, the above code is probably horribly exposed to javascript attacks, you should not display raw parameter information anywhere in your HTML > Thanks, > > Otmar > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org >
