I can't get the following code to display the string variable "DEFAULT_NAME"
when variable "name" is null or empty. This appears unusual :
[
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Hello1</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<B>
Hello, <%= getName(request) %>
</B>
</BODY>
</HTML>
<SCRIPT RUNAT="server">
<%! private static final String DEFAULT_NAME = "World";
� private String getName(HttpServletRequest req) {
� String name = req.getParameter("name");
� if (name==null)
��� return DEFAULT_NAME;
� else
��� return name;
}
%>
</SCRIPT>
]
Any suggestion will be much appreciated.
