Hi,
I am new to Java.
I am trying to create a small servlet application. I am using Tomcat 5.5 server and eclipse for this.
I have first writtern a HTML form which on submission is redirected to a servlet that displays the information submitted. but i am not able to evn open the html file through browser, i am getting 404 error.
My html codes and Servlet codes are inside the htmlform package...
When i type http://localhost:8080/htmlform/form.html i am gettig 404 error... Also let me know if any thing is wrong with the codes...
Here is my code...
form.html
<html>
<head>
<title> This is a HTML page </title>
</head>
<body>
<p><h3>This page displays a submission form</h3></p>
<form method="GET" action="/htmlform/LoginServlet">
<p> USERNAME: <input type="text" name="username"/> </p>
<p> PASSWORD: <input type="password" name="password" /> </p>
<p> <input type="submit" value="Press Me" name="submit"/> </p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
LoginServlet.java
package htmlform;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class LoginServlet extends HttpServlet{
/**
*
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter pw = response.getWriter();
String username = request.getParameter("username");
String password = request.getParameter("password");
pw.println("<html><head><title>This is the out put page</title></head");
pw.println("<body><h2>If you can see this page then your form is cleanly processed</h2><br>");
pw.println("<h2>Congratulations!!!</h2>");
pw.println("<p>Your user name is: "+ username+ "</p>");
pw.println("<p>Your password is: "+ password + "</p>");
pw.println("<br></body></html>");
}
}
