Hi,
I am not able to pass a scriplet as a parameter using <html:link> where the same is working in <a href>?
For eg,
<html:link href='#' onclick='doSubmit("doCreateEmpRecord",
"<%=empId%>")> create </html:link>
Not working where it is working for <a href> ?
What is the problem here... Pls. do provide an answer for this.
Thanks

i think sometimes you can run into problems when you try to use it in javascript like that.
what happens if you try to make a normal link, like
<tml:link href='<%=whatever%>'> create </html:link>
i would start there and continuing making it more complex until you find the point it stops working.
note, you can instead of using an onclick event use something like ....href="javascript: functionName(whatever, whatever2)">
fool around with that and let me know what you get.
With struts tags in particular, if you are going to make an attribute dynamic, make the whole attribute dynamic.
<html:link href='#' onclick='doSubmit("doCreateEmpRecord","<%=empId%>")'> create </html:link>
Try
<html:link href='#' onclick='<%= "doSubmit(\"doCreateEmpRecord\"," + empId " + ")" %>'> create </html:link>
- the whole "onclick" attribute becomes a runtime expression, rather than a mix of string and <%= expr %>

Evn,
You are really great...It is working after giving single quote for the action method. I am using weblogic 9.2. Thank u very much ...
I have one more ques. for u.
I have a search text box ,where i will key in the data
like "TigerWoods" where the data in the Database is like
"TIGerWooDs". So when i pass the name as a paremeter in the
DAO layer and send the parameter in a query to find the name. It is giving me no result since the name entered in the text box does not match with the data in the DB(with upper & lower case letters). Where the name is the same. where it should accept the name entered and give me the result like name found.
One thing is that i can't convert by name into uppercase or lowercase
letters in my application. Becos, the DB will have the name in any format (with both upper & lower case letters). How to solve this pbm. pls. do provide a soln. to this pbm. since this is quite urgent...
Thanks

Bingo. Weblogic has an issue with quotes like that sometimes. Something to do with their JSP parser.
Regarding the search, most databases don't have an equals ignore case comparision. What database are you using? The standard approach is to convert both the search value and the db column to one case or the other when comparing
String enteredSearchValue = request.getParameter("searchValue").toUpperCase();
select * from users where upper(username) = ?
