Balkan, which line is line 26 in edit action? Can you provide the entire stack trace?
Off hand I would guess that your call to request.getAttribute("key") is returning null...I don't see any other likely suspects. Your JSP does this: pageContext.setAttribute("key",key); what is pageContext? if you are putting a variable in page scope, it will not be available for the action when you repost to the server...you have a new page scope (which is different from request scope) when you come back to the server. If you want a variable to live across multiple trips to the server, try putting it in the session.
