I think you have to use a key to retrieve the information for each person.
Let's say you keep the users information in a map (key is string, value is information bean). Let's assume that this map is in the session.

We have two users in our database.
We use a map to store their information :

AAA->(rony trivandrum [email protected] 2222222)
BBB->(bob bobaddress [email protected] 3333333)

In your JSP page, you browse through the map (which is in the session) to get all the users information.
You can get the keys, and the value. You display it like this :

rony trivandrum [email protected] 2222222 <edit details>
bob bobaddress [email protected] 3333333 <edit details>
...

<edit details> is a hyperlink, right ? Let's say it points to "details.jsp"
Then you could do :
<a href="/details.jsp?key=AAA">edit details</a>
<a href="/details.jsp?key=BBB">edit details</a>
and so on.

In details.jsp, you retrieve the selected user's key, from the request parameters (parameter name is 'key'). You then use the key to retrieve the user information which is still in the session, and display it in each textbox.

I hope this is understandable

(There are other ways to do this)

if so.. what command i have to give?


<input type="text" name="name" value="<%= name %>"/>

[Christophe Verré]

What do you mean by "hide this text box" ?

[Aravind Prasad]

hide means..

i don't want to see the text box in the webpage..

but the textbox should be there!!
it should be hidden..

can i do that.. sebo?

[Christophe Verré]

If you don't want to see it, then you don't put it there
You want to use ua hidden tag maybe ?
<input type="hidden"... />

[Aravind Prasad]

sebo.. i fixed the problem..

actully.. what i do is..
i just put a layer..
and inside the layer i put the textbox..

and i made the visiblility of the layer: hidden
