HI, I have a form, I want if this form is not processed, the fields missing
change the color ( this is done using style html), but I don't know why the
other fields entered have gone, here is the form :
<form method="POST" action="add.jsp">
<table border="0" cellpadding="4" width="90%">
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#AFD0D1" color="red"><font size="1"
face="arial,helvetica"><b>Please
add a new entry, don't leave any field empty</b></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#FFCC66"><font size="2"
face="Verdana"><b></b></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<%=request.getParameter("ipaddress")%>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<font size="2" face="arial,helvetica">
<% if (!("".equals(ipaddress))) { %>
<input type="text" size="45" name="ipaddress">IP Address<br>
<% } else { %>
<input type="text" style="background-color: #ffcccc" size="45"
name="ipaddress" value=<%=request.getParameter("ipaddress")%>>Reenter IP
Address<br>
<% } %>
....
</form>
My question why this line <%=request.getParameter("ipaddress")%>
works, and this :
<input type="text" style="background-color: #ffcccc" size="45"
name="ipaddress" value=<%=request.getParameter("ipaddress")%>>Reenter IP
Address<br>
does not
Thanks
