Sorry, not entirely sure what you meant.
I have copied your code and placed it in my servlet as follows:
HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
String username = ( request.getParameter("username") != null ?
request.getParameter("username") : "" ) ;
session.setAttribute("usr", username);
my jsp now looks like this:
String username = ( request.getParameter("usr") != null ?
request.getParameter("usr") : "" ) ;
session.setAttribute("usr", username);
String usr = (String)session.getAttribute("usr");
Could you please tell me if this is what you meant?
