How to pass image path in js function

Question

I'm trying to pass the image path dynamically from one JSP page to another using a JS function, but the image path I get in a JS alert is different. The correct path is .\\Products\\767\\76\\suitmed.jpg however the alert shows me this .\\Products>7>suitmed.jpg . Can some one please help me with this.

ProductDiv.jsp

<c:forEach items="${products}" var="products">
    <div class="col-sm-4">
        <div class="product-image-wrapper">
            <div class="single-products">
                <div class="productinfo text-center">
                    <!--here in this Image tag I was trying to pass the path od med and large img from product obj -->
                    <img src="${products.smallImage}" onclick="getImageDetails('${products.mediumImage}', '${products.largeImage}'); return false;" alt="${products.productId}+productImage" />
                    <h2>${products.allPrice}</h2>
                    <p>${products.name}</p>
                </div>
            </div>
            <div class="choose">
                <ul class="nav nav-pills nav-justified">
                    <li>
                        <a href="">
                            <i class="fa fa-plus-square"></i>
                            Add to Wishlist
                        </a>
                    </li>
                </ul>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</c:forEach>

Product.Js

function getImageDetails(mediumImagePath, LargeImagePath) {
    alert(mediumImagePath + "_______" + LargeImagePath);
    $("#bigImage").attr("src", mediumImagePath);
}

Product details.Jsp

<div class="view-product" >
    <img class="fancybox" id="bigImage" src="" data-big="images/home/suitlarge.jpg" /></br>
    <!--<img src="images/product-details/1.jpg" alt="" /> -->
    <h3>ZOOM</h3>
</div> 

Answer 1

Never programmed jsp, but here is a plausible explanation:

\\## is interpreted as an octal character escape sequence.

Char    Octal   Dec Hex Description
<        74     60  3c  Less than sign (&lt; in HTML)
=        75     61  3d  Equals sign
>        76     62  3e  Greater than sign (&gt; in HTML)
?        77     63  3f  Question mark

so "\\76" becomes ">" when printing..

try replacing all "\\" with "/" in paths that usually helps you out, and most webservices can already handle the translation from unix styled paths to windows styled..
