Hi Hee!
You didn't provide enough information: what is the error message that you
are getting? is your JavaScript enclosed in <JAVASCRIPT> container?
I'll try to answer anyway:
Since you need the "<" to appear in the resulting HTML page, you can write:
if (a <%= "<" %> b) {
or even:
<%= "if (a < b) {" %>
The resulting servlet code will be:
out.println( "" + "<");
and
out.println( "" + "if (a < b) {");
respectively.
I did find that Jrun 2.2 has a problem with the <JAVASCRIPT> tag - it treats
the rest of the page as simple text!
The simplest solution is to use the same method here:
<%= "<JAVASCRIPT>" %>
Bye,
Amir

Subject: Problem parsing "<" in JSP - Lexical error
Hi,
A javascript function in my jsp file causes a parse error (lexical
error). Here is
a snippet of the function :
if (a < b) {
...
}
The culprit is the "<" character. How should I deal with this so that
the jsp
can be parsed properly? I am using JRUN as the engine.
Thanks for any info.
Regards
