Problem with post and get (jsp to servlet)

Question

===jsp code(login.jsp)
out.println("<form action='servlet/Login' action='post'>");
out.println("Username <input type='text' name='user' /><br>");
out.println("Password <input type='password' name='pass' /><br>");
out.println("<input type='submit' value='Login' /><br></form>");
the above jsp page is included in another jsp page
===jsp code(index.jsp)
<jsp:include page='login.jsp' flush='true'/>
when submit is clicked in the login form, the data is send (to Login servlet) in the url string, even though i am using "POST" method in the form.
the output of request.getMethod() in the Login servlet gives "GET"
what could be the problem?

Answer 1

The code you've shown us looks fine. The problem isn't in the form code you've listed. Is the form being included inside another form on index.jsp? Does index.jsp have any forms of it's own? Perhaps you aren't submitting the form you think you are submitting. Or, are you redirecting in your serlvet somewhere? Or are you forwarding the request somehow?
I agree with the previous post - we need to see the HTML output that index.jsp results in.
