I have a servlet that is supposed to return a report to a web page, each item in the report is stored in the alist List object.

out.println(alist); // ArraList of String

On the client-side, here is the Javascript code that captures the data from alist:

$.get('DisplayReport',{reportId:reportId},function(responseTest){
    $("#div1").show();
    for(var i = 0; i < responseTest.length; i++)
    {
        $('#row1').append("<td>"+responseTest[i]+"</td>");
    }
});

The problem is that responseTest[i] displays each character instead of each item in the list. Please help.

Dude... a Java list can't be converted to a Javascript list. Take a look at this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2010990/how-do-you-return-a-json-object-from-a-java-servlet – the_marcelo_r Oct 28 '14 at 18:53
