How i can set value of attribute in jsp action dynamically?

Question

I have action in my jsp page <jsp:include page = <%=(String)request.getAttribute("page")%> /> the page is request parameter that i have set previously in my servlet. But when i try to access my jsp page i get.

<jsp:include page = <%=(String)request.getAttribute("page")%> />

How to set page correctly ?

May be in single/double quotes - "" – Ninad Pingale Jul 21 '14 at 07:00 — Ninad Pingale, Jul 21 '14 at 07:00
@NinadPingale i guess it could be rather `" />` like this – Santhosh Jul 21 '14 at 07:02 — Santhosh, Jul 21 '14 at 07:02
@Ninad Pingale It works with single quotes. Thank you. – Oleksandr Papchenko Jul 21 '14 at 07:10 — Oleksandr Papchenko, Jul 21 '14 at 07:10

I suggest to avoid Scriplet instead use JSP Standard Tag Library and Expression language that is easy to user and less error prone.

the page is request parameter that i have set previously in my servlet.

Since as per you its request parameter then you can access it using JSTL and EL from parameter.

${param.page}

If its set a request attribute the access it a below:

${requestScope.page}

See Difference between getAttribute() and getParameter()
