Problem with get/setAttribute

[Steve Peake]

I'm having a problem with get/setAttribute, I'm just doing:

a.jsp
String s_params = request.getParameter("PP");
session.setAttribute("PARAM_IN", s_params);

b.jsp
String passed_param= (String) session.getAttribute("PARAM_IN");

This always returns null in b.jsp. Chnaging the getParam line to :

String s_params = "anything";

works fine, so I'm guessing I'm not creating a new string correctly, but I
cannot find the correct method to do this. Any clues here?

Cheers

I'm having a problem with get/setAttribute, I'm just doing:

a.jsp
String s_params = request.getParameter("PP");

try this..
if (s_params!=null) System.out.println(s_params);
else System.out.println("Parameter is 'null'!");

I know s-params is not null as keeping the getattribute in the same file
always works. It seems to be that I'm just passing the pointet to the
object, not the value itself, and I don't know how to get round that

may be silly, but make sure you are indeed accessing the same session !

request.getSession(false);
