Please TellTheDetails. The exact wording and related information of the error is important. Don't paraphrase. Cut and paste the exact error information (use code tags).

One problem I can see with your code right of the bat is the empty var attribute. That's not valid.

I changed the offending line to:
[code]<input type="hidden" name="alert" value="<c:out ${value}/>">[/code]

The error becomes:
12:44:12,168 ERROR org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[/Myapp].[jsp]:662 - Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/jsp/host.jsp(63,53) Unterminated <c:out tag

I changed the offending line to:


There is no error now.
The web page can be displayed.
However, the page source is:

The value is empty, not an integer as expected.

I don't see a variable named value declared/set anywhere. Where is it getting set?

Make sure you remember to mark your topic as Resolved.

If it's not doing what you want it to do, then there's a bug - even if it's just a design flaw.
What does you code look like now (what's shown above hasn't been corrected, right?)

Edit: I see you've just posted your new code. However, you've missed the code tags. Also, turn off smileys in your post.

Hmm, originally, your previous post said you were still having a problem, not it doesn't.

What's the final story?

How to mark my topic as Resolved.
Where is the "Resolved" button?

Really? You can't see it? Look harder.

It's the icon at the very bottom. You actually have to hover over it to see the "Mark as Resolved" text... not particularly intuitive, IMO.

On topics that I start, there's a "Resolved" button along the top and bottom of the page, right along side the buttons: Post Reply, Bookmark It, Watch/Stop Watching, etc.

Am I the only one that gets this button? I feel privileged :)

edit: Heh - I can't even see the check mark button you've referenced. Is it possible my buttons have the names, while yours have icons - perhaps due to a profile setting (like expert mode or something)?

I see the "Post Reply", "Bookmark It", "Watch Topic/Stop Watching", "New Topic", "JavaRanch » Forums » Java » JSP", "Quick Reply", "RSS feed", etc buttons but not the "Resolved" button after I logged in.
I use Firefox, Chrome and IE browsers on Windows vista home.

David: Is the check mark button perhaps the mechanism you (a moderator) use to mark a topic as "Moderator says it's resolved"? When you start your own topic, do you see a Resolved button at the top and bottom of the topic page? See my post in the Ranch Office for an image of the topic page that I see: https://coderanch.com/t/485296/Ranch-Office/Why-do-have-Resolved-button

I assume that
Bear Bibeault's post is true:
I think we're chasing a phantom here. The Resolved button did not appear for the post in question because I had already resolved the topic.

The "Resolved" button the other people were talking about is visible to the topic starter only. The one I'm talking about appears because I'm a moderator.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
