Check out the concept of the application context, and how you can use it to store values (called "attributes") throughout the application lifetime.

If you want this available to the whole appplication use javax.servlet.ServletContext or to a particular session use javax.servlet.http.HttpSession. The code you have given work only for that particulr jsp/URL.

Context init parameters are not the same thing as context attributes. In particular, context init parameters are immutable, so you can't use them for what you want to do (except for fetching an initial value with which to seed the attribute).

You can do this very easily using a servlet :

declare a variable



then in servlet's doGet method write :




And in jsp, write,

buddy
may there is some other problem with your system but the value is increasing for me..i have copy pasted your program in my tomcat and while refreshing (internet explorer) the value is increasing as it should be.

and the variable declared in (Declaration Tag) <%! %> are same as to those which are declared at class level in case of servlets
