Change the code in the first page as follow:

  <html>
<body>
<form action="buy.jsp">
  <input type="number" name="quantity" min="1">
  <input type= "submit" value=submit>
</form>
</body>
</html>

As of the second page, you need to use Param in order to get the data from the first page as follow:

 <html>
<head><title> Any Title<\title><\head>
<body>

The Quantity is: ${param.quantity}

</body>
</html>
