Question

I have created a servlet that passes a string variable strname to a JSP page.
The JSP recieves it into a variable “strname” using

request.getAttribute("strname") 

Now I want to display this inside the text field of a form

 <form action="LogoutServlet" method="post">
            <% String strname =(String)request.getAttribute("uname");%> 
            Username:<input type="text" name="username" value="${username}"/>
    </form>

but it is displaying “username” int the text field.
How can I display the strname var in the text ??
Please Help

Using $ you can get the value. For ex :
<input type="text" name="strname" value="${strname}" />
(Assuming you are getting correct value in strname variable.)
