using servelts and Jsp

[buddy]

Hi friends

I am new to java.
I want to write a function in servlet and I want to call it in Jsp.
how can I do that??

You submit the JSP to that servlet and in the servlet you call that function.
What have you done so far?

can u give sample code to write method in servlet and call in jsp.I was just able to call the servlet with just basic output "hello" .
I used the following code in jsp
<%
RequestDispatcher dispatcher = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/abc");
dispatcher.include(request,response);



%>

Don't write Java code in JSPs. What do you want the method to do? Like I said you don't actually call the method from the JSP, instead you submit the JSP to a servlet. The servlet then calls the method and could store the results(if any) as an attribute which that JSP or other JSPs can access.

I want to write just a small function in servlet.I have to send a parameter from jsp like "name " then it should return "Hello Name".

Find a JSP and servlets tutorials and read it first then.
Sun's JavaEE tutorial is pretty comprehensive.

OK, I have ripped this part from my secret message
