I'm working on a social networking site and I want to print the 5 most popular people I follow.The result set is returning 5 most popular people I follow from database. I want the first one to be printed in an h1 heading, the second one in h2 and so on etc. My question is if there is any way to change the heading during the iteration without printing each result in if clauses.

Bellow is my code

<% ResultSet rs1 = dao.returnTop5(email); 
int i = 1; 
while (rs1.next()){ 
  String username1 = rs1.getString("username"); 
  String profilephoto = rs1.getString("profilephoto"); 
  String followers = rs1.getString("followers"); %> 
  <img src="<%= profilephoto %>" class="first" title="<%= username1 %>">
  <b><big>&nbsp <%= username1 %></a>
      <h2 class="color">#<%= i %> (<%= followers %> Followers)</h2>
  </big></b> <br> <% i++; 
 } %>

    #<%= i %> (<%= followers %> Followers)
    <% i++; } %>     – Konstantina Papagiannopoulou Jan 15 '15 at 12:00
  • there is only one loop do you mean in first iteration and 2nd iteration or first loop and 2nd loop? – Zahid Ali Jan 15 '15 at 12:38
  • In first iteration I want the h1 heading and in second iteration the h2 heading. Sorry for my mistake. – Konstantina Papagiannopoulou Jan 15 '15 at 12:43

i don't know what exactly do you want in heading but i hope this will help you out to write your program

<% ResultSet rs1 = dao.returnTop5(email); 
int i = 1; 
while (rs1.next()){ 
  String username1 = rs1.getString("username"); 
  String profilephoto = rs1.getString("profilephoto"); 
  String followers = rs1.getString("followers"); 
   %>
      <h<%=i%>><%= username1 %></h<%=i%>>
 <%
  i++; 
 } %>

bellow is the general program for you you can copy it and paste to the any jsp file to test bellow program

    <%
    for (int a=1; a<=5; a++){
     %>
        <h<%=a%>>Hello World!</h<%=a%>>
    <%
    }        
    %>
