How to pass the parameter values to the servlets?

[Narasimha Rao B.]

Hi,
Can any of you explain how can i pass the parameter values to my servlet.
One way to pass the parameter values to the servlet, when the servlet is called from the JSP page is -- Call the below method in the servlet,
"request.getParameter("<parametername");"

Now my doubt is , If i invoke my servlet directly from the browser, instead from JSP, how to pass the parameter values. Is there any way to specifiy the parameter values, for a particular servlet, in weblogic.properties. Like specifying the initparametervalues.
I am using Bee Weblogic server 5.0

Thanks in Advance,
Narasimha.

You will have to pass it as a query parameter i.e. to append the name value pairs to the URL.
For e.g.
http://localhost:7779/webapp/myservlet?name=pradeep
