Cant get inputstream in servlet

Question

Hi,
I am using tomcat 5.0 and trying to get inputstream in servlet to print the content which i got from client..
Here is the code of my doGet()
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
     System.out.println("In Doget");
     try
          InputStream in = request.getInputStream();
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
          String line = br.readLine();
          System.out.println("Line :"+line);
          while (line != null)
               System.out.println("Line :"+line);
               line=br.readLine();
     catch (Exception e)
          System.out.println("Exception occured in doGet:");
          e.printStackTrace();
     System.out.println("End of doGet :::");
When it try to invoke above servlet with this URL( http://localhost:8080/USUResetPasswordServlet?afadfasfd ), it is suppose to print me "afadfasfd" in the server console..But is not..Any idea, why it is failing...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thanks for the response..
It is some thing confusing..Let me put it this way..I
am trying to contact the servlet from a java
program..Here is the code for it..
URL servlet = new
URL("http://127.0.0.1:8080//USUResetPasswordServlet");
String xmlStr = "<hai>hasafd</hai>";
URLConnection connect = servlet.openConnection();
               connect.setDoOutput(true);
               connect.setDoInput(true);
               //connect.connect();
               OutputStream outStr = connect.getOutputStream();
               //PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(outStr);
               outStr.write(xmlStr.getBytes());
               outStr.flush();
               outStr.close();
InputStream is = connect.getInputStream();
Any idea, why it is not priting content in servlet
console??
SatyaThat would cause your servlet's doPost method to be invoked, not doGet. So what is your doPost doing?
