sending data to a modal form in jsp page using bootstrap

I have a problem sending and receiving data from a button to a modal form in bootstrap.

Inside my button tag I have: 

data-comment=<%=Comentarios.listUltimos().get(i).getComentario() %>

And then I take that data with a java script code in the event on click, where I fill the form.

var myComentario = $(this).data('comment');
document.getElementById("myModalComment").value=myComentario;

It works fine but It only takes the first word of the content I have in my Database.

Looks like you're inserting the data as-is without proper quoting:

<sometag attr=foo bar baz>

Which parses into a tag with attributes:

attr="foo"
bar
baz

When what you really meant was:

<sometag attr="foo bar baz">

What you want to do is surround the <%...%> with quotes and proper escaping:

data-comment="<%=Comentarios.listUltimos().get(i).getComentario().replace("\"", "\\\"") %>"
