Sanjay,
It would be more helpful to everyone if you sent your emails as plain text
rather than in HTML format.
The logic in your page will not work. Do you realize that all of the Java
code in your JSP is executed BEFORE it is displayed on the browser? It
also seems that you are getting the value of columnValue, storing it in
xcolumnValue and then setting setting it back again
with dataentry.setcolumnValue(xcolumnValue) Your form isn't doing
anything. It also doesn't contain properly formatted HTML.
<input type="text" name=xcolumnValue[j]
value="<%= xcolumnValue[j] %>"> </input>
Regards,
Richard
