passing json data from servlet to jsp to js file

Question

I got this servlet which creates JSON data and I want to pass this data on to a jsp page which is supposed to display the data via the InfoVis toolkit.

servlet.java

The downside to that is that it creates a global variable, but if you're calling init in that way, init is already a global, so that ship has sailed. :-)
