Subject: Check your variable scope…

sessionScope.getDesc=someServerDesc; on the first pagesomeServerVar=sessionScope.getDesc; on the second page.

  • One thing that continually bites me in the posterior is scope. Far as I know, all the scoped variable (sessionScope for instance) are server only. If you are trying to use that value client side, it will fail. You can do an “inline” though:

someClientVar=${sessionScope.getDesc};

At least I think you can. Like I said, scoping always manages to bite me.

  • You can not set sessionScope from the client, so if you are setting “sessionScope” in client-side JS this will always end in tears. You must find some way to apply your client data to the server sessionScope variable.

Hope this helps…
