With var test = "${attributename}"; is possible to get the request attribute "attributename" from javascript/jquery.

Is there a way to set a request attribute in a similar way in javascript/jquery?

• javascript
• jquery
• httprequest

• @Stano: I'm using struts 1.3. I need to set a form property according to an ajax call response. I succeed in doing it: in the success callback I replace a div with another one in the response (this div contains the form property field properly setted). But I have some side effects, so I wanted to resolve in another way, for example by setting a request attribute in the success callback. – Sefran2 Commented Jul 27, 2013 at 13:08

NO.

Request and response available on server side ...you cannot access in javascript.

var test = "${attributename}";

resolves on pile time at server side.

You might misunderstand that jsp and javascript existed on same document.Yes but JSP part piles on server side itself es to client.

I did'nt get your intention here, that while sending request,set parameter and do a request.No matter weather it is Ajax,Html form ..etc

Your question wasn't phrased too clearly, but if you are looking to get/set the request parameters of the url... take a look at the following posts:

Get a request parameter from the current url: How can I get query string values in JavaScript?

And set a request parameter: Adding a parameter to the URL with JavaScript
