    I’d suggest to use the jQuery Star Rating plugin for this. Check the demo page how it all look like. The JSP/HTML basically look like this (you only need to put the necessary JS/CSS/image files in the public webcontent). The magic is done by giving the radio buttons the class name star.

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>Star rating demo</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery.rating.css">
        <script src="jquery.js"></script>
        <script src="jquery.rating.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <form>
            <input type="radio" name="rating" value="1" class="star">
            <input type="radio" name="rating" value="2" class="star">
            <input type="radio" name="rating" value="3" class="star">
            <input type="radio" name="rating" value="4" class="star">
            <input type="radio" name="rating" value="5" class="star">
        </form>
    </body>
</html>

    In the server side you just use HttpServletRequest#getParameter() to obtain the rating value.

    String rating = request.getParameter("rating");
// ...

    With the above example, it’ll return 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.
