It seems to me that the problem is that you are trying to do everything in the JSP without benefit of using an Action. The Action is where this kind of processing should take place. (Some developers would push it further, into Business Objects, but they would still be called from the Action.) In the Action you have access to both the form and your DB bean and can handle interactions between them.
So, I would make the entry point of your application an Action, not just a JSP.
