jsp ::

<c:set var="fontclass" value="unicode ieunicode" /> <script type="text/javascript">   var fontclass = "${fontclass}"; </script> 

js file::

var fontclass = '${fontclass}'; alert($("#${fontclass}")); 

but got error: syntax error, unrecognized expression: #${fontclass}

what wrong codes or suggestion ? in advance..

you can't jstl <c:set/> value in js file this. jsp processed @ server side , js @ client side.

to use value in js file :

jsp file:

<c:set var="fontclass" value="unicode ieunicode" /> <script type="text/javascript">     yourjsfunction("${fontclass}"); </script> 

js file:

function yourjsfunction(fontclass) {     // finalresult local variable     var finalresult = fontclass;  } 

to use value in inline javascipt code (not good) :

jsp file:

<c:set var="fontclass" value="unicode ieunicode" /> <script type="text/javascript">     // finalresult global variable     var finalresult = "${fontclass}"; </script> 

/!\ not practice because global variable has common name , accessible anywhere. have @ next solution :

to use value in inline javascipt code (better way using namespace) :

jsp file:

<!-- define namespace, global object --> <script>     var yourcompany = yourcompany || {}; </script>  <c:set var="fontclass" value="unicode ieunicode" /> <script type="text/javascript">     // set values want namespace     yourcompany.fontclass = "${fontclass}";     yourjsfunction(); </script> 

js file:

function yourjsfunction() {     // font class value set in namespace accessible :     yourcompany.fontclass; }
