disp = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/secure/Formate.jsp"); it only work on do get . if I try to change to do post , I got empty display .

Thank you

Answer 1

Did you set action="POST" in your <FORM> tag in the
JSP?I think the OP meant requests generated by clicking on a hyper link.
Have u over riddendoPost() method?????It wont work even then.
it only work on do get . if I try to change to do post , I got empty display .
why??That's bcos post requests could be submitted only through form submissions. When you submit a form, you have an option of specifying that the request method be get or post.
When you access a resource by clicking on a url link, the request is always get. The max you could do is call doPost() from doGet() if you do want the code in doPost() to get called.
