Hi,
I am learning JSP with the SAMS book"Teach Yourself JSP in 24 Hours". One
of the sample JSPs keeps getting a compiler error. The code is:
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>JSP that processes parameters in a link</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
Parameters
<UL>
<LI>Country = <%= request.getParameter("country") %>
<LI>Colors:
<UL>
<%! String[] colorValues = request.getParameterValues("colors"); %>
<LI>Color 1 = <%= colorValues[0]%>
<LI>Color 2 = <%= colorValues[1]%>
<LI>Color 3 = <%= colorValues[2]%>
</UL>
</UL>
</BODY>
</HTML>
The error is a status 500 - Internal Server Error: Undefined variable or
class name: request
String[] colorValues = request.getParameterValues("colors");
If I remove the colorValues variable declaration and just put <%
request.getParameterValues("colors") %>, I get past that line. Of course,
the next line then shows colorValues as undefined.
I don't understand why this is occurring. I am using Tomcat 4.0.4 and j2sdk
1.4.0_01.
Thanks for your help.
