Put your function definitions in a declarations section:
<%!
String validateStr(int length,String str)
{
...
}
%>
The '!' tells the JSP engine to put the code outside the _JspService
function. All code in the <%...%> delimiters will be put in the _JspService
function. BTW, <%!...%> must contain complete definitions not code
fragments as with <%...%>.
