get the JSP session object inside the servlet

[abc73]

How can I get the JSP session object inside the servlet.

In my JSP page I am set up a session i.e.

session.setAttribute("Names",vector); //where vector contains the data

then I call the servlet from JSP i.e.

<img src="test.dep.evg.MyServlet">

now I want to get the session object inside the servlet service method and that's what I am doing

Vector v = (Vector)session.getAttribute("Names");

but it keeps on giving me null. How can I get the values set in the session object in JSP page accessible in the servlet.

Thanks

HttpSession session = request.getSession();

Are you absolutely sure that -

a) You are setting the "Names" object ?
b) The vector is not actually null ?
