[FIXED] Java Only getting the first value on <input> type hidden on a loop

Issue

I am trying to send a value to my servlet with two inputs, one that is going to have my product name(type hidden) and the other to submit that value;

for(Product product : listProducts)
        {
            out.print("Name: " + product.getName());
            %>
            <input type="hidden" name="flag" value="<% out.println(product.getName()); %>">

            <input type="submit" value="Add to cart"/>
            <br>
            <% 

        }

The problem is that I only get the first value of the products. And if I do this:

for(Product product : listProducts)
        {
            out.print("Name: " + product.getName());
            %>
            <input type="submit" name="flag" value="<% out.println(product.getName()); %>">

            <br>
            <% 

        }

it works just fine. So I think is something with the hidden input.

Solution

Try surrounding both <input>s with a <form></form>.
