Change the following line of your java code

req.setAttribute("ad",admin);

TO

req.setAttribute("admin", admin);

hi,

yes, this is not necessary to use form bean...but why you are not using form bean...is there any special reason??...i dont think so, because you are violeting struts rule there...
anyways if you are not using form bean , take admin object in your jsp page and get it from request. use below code

in action class
 
Admin admin = new Admin();
//get values from dao or db to set in admin
 
admin.setEmail(email);
admin.setname(name);
 
request.setAttribute("admin",admin);
 
 
now you can get this admin object in your jsp page...
 
<% Admin admin = (Admin)request.getAttribute("admin");%>
 
and iterate....
 

but if you are using struts ....this is not the right way ......
better use form bean and take setter getter for Admin and set it in action class and iterate it in jsp....
