>can i access a javascript method within jsp...............
Simple answer is no.
JSP is server-side only, the <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">...</SCRIPT> tags
are client-side (browser) only.
>what i mean to say is can i do something like this..

this..........
The obvious answer to that is, write the functions in Java instead :-)
You can generate JavaScript code from JSP, which can be a useful technique.
One other point looking at your example, the <%! ... %> tags declare methods
and variables that are shared between all requests to the JSP page - you
need to be aware of any potential concurrency issues. In contrast variables
declared within <% ... %> get defined separately for each request.
