Connection con = null;
Statement stmt = null;

try
{ 

Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:datasrc");

stmt = con.createStatement();

for(String s:c)
{
String qy = "delete  *  from Table1 where id='"+s+"' ";

Difficult to say what is problem as we do not know what the first page look like

PS: Database connectivity should be handled by servlet not by page it self.

delete.jsp Code

<%@ page language="java" import="java.sql.*" %>

<%
String c[]=request.getParameterValues("chbox"); 

Connection con = null;
Statement stmt = null;

try
{ 

Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:datasrc");

stmt = con.createStatement();

for(String s:c)
{
String qy = "delete  *  from Table1 where id='"+s+"' "; 
 
stmt.executeUpdate(qy);
out.println("Successfully Deleted");
}

}
catch(Exception e)
{

out.println(e.getMessage());
}
%>

The problem arrives in delete.jsp as the values of the checkbox arent accessible here. it goes to the catch block & displays null and even if i print String c[] it doesnt give me anything. Please can you help
