JavaServer Pages (JSP) and JSTL - Dynamic creation & selction of rows

Hi,

I am using JSP to dynamically populate & display the database records in a HTML table.

I want to select a particular data row using a checkbox. I can create checkbox like below

<% while(resultset.next()){ %>

<TR>

<TD>

<%= resultset.getString(1) %>

</td> <TD>

<%= resultset.getString(2) %>

</TD>

</TR>

<% } %>

but the probelm is that, though multiple checkboxes appear on screen with each row, actually it's only one with "ck1" name.

How can i make selection of row using checkbox?

Can someone help me with this issue?

Thanks

# 1

<% int row = 0;
while(resultset.next()){ %>
<TR>
<TD> <input name="ck1" type="checkbox" value="<%=row++%>" /></td>
<TD> <div align="center"><%= resultset.getString(1) %></div></td> <TD> <div align="center"><%= resultset.getString(2) %></div></TD>
</TR>
<% } %> 
When retrieving values, use 
String rows[] = request.getParameterValues("ck1");
and iterate over the array to find out which rows were selected
Hope that helps

Another approach would be instead of putting in a row, put the id of the record you are currently on. Then you get a String[] of selected ids. Very useful when you want to select a bunch of stuff to delete.
