  1. String date1 is inside a loop. You won't be able to get its value outside.
  2. change alert2('<%=date1'); to alert2('<%= date1 %>');

Have you put the end double quote?

onclick="pagetype('<%=uname%>')"

The error is a javascript error ? If it is, Is <%=uname%> visible in the page source?

Have you put something like <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %> at the top of the jsp?
