Syntax
<sql:param value=”<string>”/>
JSTL Param Tag has following attribute.
1. value Attribute: Specifies the value of the parameter.
JSTL <sql:param> Tag Example:-
The following example takes input from the employee and inserts the entered citizen information into the database using the combination of <sql:query> and <sql:param> tags. The list of records are displayed in tabular manner once the new record has been inserted.
Now let us write a JSP which will make use of <sql:update> to execute a SQL DELETE statement to delete one record with id = 103 from the table as follows:
<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%> <%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%> <html> <head> <title>JSTL sql:param Tag</title> </head> <body> <sql:setDataSource var="snapshot" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/DAVDB" user="root" password="root"/> <c:set var="empId" value="3333"/> <sql:update dataSource="${snapshot}" var="count"> DELETE FROM Employees WHERE Id = ? <sql:param value="${empId}" /> </sql:update> <sql:query dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result"> SELECT * from Employees; </sql:query> <table border="1" width="100%"> <tr> <th>Emp ID</th> <th>First Name</th> <th>Last Name</th> <th>Age</th> </tr> <c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}"> <tr> <td><c:out value="${row.id}"/></td> <td><c:out value="${row.first}"/></td> <td><c:out value="${row.last}"/></td> <td><c:out value="${row.age}"/></td> </tr> </c:forEach> </table> </body> </html>
Now try to access above JSP, which should display the following result:
Emp ID | First Name | Last Name | Age |
---|---|---|---|
1111 | Dinesh | Rajput | 27 |
2222 | Sweety | Rajput | 23 |
Inside forEach how do we store values.
