I have written two servlets namely IndexServlet and LoginServlet.
Their code is as follows:

IndexServlet

Login Servlet

Can anybody tell me where I have gone wrong?

Well, the first major thing I see wrong is that you are spitting out HTML in your servlet when you should just use a JSP.

Other than that, you'll have to provide more information like what it isn't doing that you think it should or error messages, stack traces, etc.

1. your opening form tag.

2. you need web.xml also when you are working with servlet.

Hi Greg,

Here, the IndexServlet should execute LoginServlet but it is not happening even though both of them are in same directory

May be you would have checked this, but I dont see any link or forwarding to the other servlet from IndexServlet. One thing is you can include that in the action tag in the form.

Tell us exactly what error message you get.

out.println("</form action = 'LoginServlet' method = 'GET' >");

What is the servlet-mapping for your LoginServlet. You just can't reference your servlet by using the servlet name. You need to use the servlet-mapping.

Post your web.xml

MCSD, SCJP, SCWCD, SCBCD, SCJD (in progress - URLybird 1.2.1)

Don't worry Here is the code for IndexServlet

and here is the code for LoginServlet

Add the following snippet to your web applications web.xml:

Try this and your browser will surely display the Username and Password submitted by you.

Thanks

may i know how could you access the servlets from your web browser?

I have one question if it works fine. Can we use servelet name from web browser to get the output, without using web.xml??

In older versions of the more popular servlet containers you could do this.
This turned out to be a bad idea for a host of different reasons and the capability has been pulled back.
So, in newer versions, the answer is no.
With Tomcat, this was done with the "InvokerServlet". To learn more about the InvokerServlet, read:
