Pass values from one jsp to another jsp file:
Form values from one jsp can be sent to another jsp file with action parameter in form and getParameter method in the second jsp file.
Things to remember:

- In jsp2.jsp file use getParameter() method and pass the name of the form element inside to get the value whichever is passed from jsp1.jsp file.
