Subject: Re: hashtable
I think another lister posted this answer. You should do this;
int styles[] = (int [])session.getAttribute("styles");
I'll also recommend testing the session before using it. I think if you
get null from request.getSession(false), that means it timed out, or was
marked invalid.
