Re: In significant need of help.

I'll have to think about that a bit.  Since Javascript is generally a 
client side thing, I am not sure how you could create an object on the 
server and make it accessible to the client.  I vaguely remember doing 
something like this in .asp a while back but it was ugly.  JSP's kind of 
muddy the waters between client side and server side so perhaps there is 
a way with JSP's to do this.

I am by no means an experienced .jsp programmer.  We moved to FreeMarker 
so we could avoid JSP's.  Freemarker, being a server side engine has 
gotten us a close to MVC as possible....but I am digressing here.

There are a couple of guys here that are much smarter than me (ain't 
hard...) with JSP and Java scripting.  I'll see what they say.
