3. The complete directory structure required for the Servlet Application will be created

automatically by the IDE.


4. To create a Servlet, open Source Package, right click on default packages -> New -

> Servlet.

5. Give a Name to your Servlet class file,


6. Now, your Servlet class is ready, and you just need to change the method definitions and you

will good to go.

7. Write some code inside your Servlet class.


// In doGet method we write the following code

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)

throws ServletException, IOException {

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

String name = request.getParameter("name");

out.println("<HTML>");

out.println("<HEAD><TITLE>Hello, " + name + "</TITLE></HEAD>");

out.println("<BODY>");

out.println("Hello, " + name);

out.println("</BODY></HTML>");

9. Give it a name.

10. Write some code inside your HTML file.

<body>

<FORM METHOD="GET" ACTION="MyServlet">

If you don't mind me asking, what is your name?

<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="name"><P>

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT>

</FORM>

</body>

To make the form works with Java servlet, we need to specify the following attributes for

the <form> tag:

o method=”get” or “post” to send the form data as an HTTP GET or POST request to

the server. Generally, form submission should be done in HTTP GET or POST

method.

o action=”URL of the servlet”: specifies relative URL of the servlet which is

responsible for handling data posted from this form.

11. Check web.xml file. In the web.xml file you can see, we have specified the url-pattern and

the servlet-name,

<servlet>

<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>

<servlet-class>MyServlet</servlet-class>

</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>

<servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>

<url-pattern>/MyServlet</url-pattern>

</servlet-mapping>

12. Run your application, right click on your Project and select Run
