The session variables can be accessed in a jsp page from the request object.
Note: Accessing session contents in JSP is not a good design practice
session.invalidate()
<?php // start session session_start(); // Assign value to session $user = $_SESSION['variable_name']; // variable_name = value to store in session // To reset session variable use below method unset($user); // If you want to destroy all session variables use below method session_destroy(); // destroys all session variables ?>
All you have to do to maintain a session is start it before you call any variables. Once you've started the session, you can store variables for use in later scripts. Beware though, once the user closes the browser, the sessions' over. I'd use the following SCRIPT 1: <?php // Start session session_start(); // Set some variables (this simulates form input) $_SESSION['answers']['Q1'] = 18; $_SESSION['answers']['Q2'] = 36; $_SESSION['answers']['Q4'] = "Fred"; ?> ============================= Hope that helps...
You can set the value in the hidden form fields using javascript and access the form fields in JSP
In any JSP Page, there are a bunch of implicit objects that are available for the programmer to use. It contains a variety of information that can be used to display stuff on the page. The following JSP Implicit Objects are available for a programmer: • request • response • out • session • config • application • page • pageContext
Yes you can. Use the below line in your JSP page to accomplish it. <%@ page session="false" %>
jsp init()
session.invalidate()
Session in the JSP and Servlet context refers to an instance of the HttpSession object that contains all the information about the current user session with the web application. This can be used as a cache or temporary storage area to store values that might be required across the application.
HTML is a static language and hence access to Sessions is not available in HTML pages. Sessions are accessible only for J2EE systems that use Servlets, JSP etc.
<?php // start session session_start(); // Assign value to session $user = $_SESSION['variable_name']; // variable_name = value to store in session // To reset session variable use below method unset($user); // If you want to destroy all session variables use below method session_destroy(); // destroys all session variables ?>
Session Variables
Setting and getting session attributes is fairly easy. It is the same in both Servlets and JSPs with one exception. In a JSP, you already have access to the session object, and you do not have to declare it. In a Servlet, you must get the session like this: javax.servlet.http.HttpSession session = request.getSession(); Once you have done that, you can set a session object like this: session.setAttribute("name","value"); To retrieve the value, do this: String foo = (String) session.getAttribute("name"); A couple of things to keep in mind: * The second parameter in the setAttribute method is an Object, not a String. When you retrieve the value, you have to cast it. In the example above, I am casting it to a String. * If you try to perform a getAttribute on a session attribute that does not exist, or was not set, it will return a null. * Session attributes are not available using JavaScript. You can not set or get an attribute in JavaScript. * You do NOT need to do the 'session = request.getSession() in a JSP. It is only necessary in a Servlet.
You can dynamically identify the JSP file in a servlet by using the request URL or request parameters to determine which JSP to forward the request to. You can also store necessary information in session attributes or external configurations to help determine the appropriate JSP to display. Finally, you can use a servlet mapping or URL pattern to route requests to different JSP files based on the URL.
