I am using the jakarta-taglibs 'random' taglib to generate a 10 character-long session id:
<rand:string id="r" charset="a-zA-Z0-9" length="10"/>
I would like to be able to use this session id within the SESSION, so naturally i want to try this:
session.setAttribute("id", r.getRandom() );
Unfortunately, the only way to access the random number, is via:
<jsp:getProperty id="r" property="random"/>
so i would then try and write this:
session.setAttribute("id", %> <jsp:getProperty id="r" property="random"/>
<% );But this doesn't work either. So my question is, how do I pass a taglib property into a session attribute in the FIRST PAGE.
(I have worked out how to use a hidden form field to pass the number BACK into the page, or into another page, but I need to access the number WITHIN the first page.
Any suggestions? S
