I have a question using grails variable values in javascript code in a GSP file.

For Example: I have a session value **session.getAttribute("selectedValue")** and I want to use this value inside javascript code part.

My solution is now (inside a GSP):

```
<%
    def js = new String("<script type=\"text/javascript\">")
    js += "var jsSelectedValue = " + session.getAttribute("selectedValue") + ";"
    js += "</script>"
    out << js
%>

```

and then I have javascript block inside my GSP with jQuery Stuff and so on, there I need this value.

Is there another way to have grails variables accessible inside pure javascript code?

And second question, the exactly other way around. I select for example in a dropdown box and click "save" and then i want to store the value $("#select-box").val() inside a session variable from JS-part.

Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Cheers,

Marco
