Re: Passing web.xml to a servlet

Question

Hi there,
Why are you writing HTML inside a Servlet?
You can write HTML in a much cleaner and easier way in a JSP page.
Use Servlets only to control the view (JSP Pages) , and to interact with the middle layer Java classes and JavaBeans.
Secondly , please use the Code button, and insert your code inside the opening code and closing code tags.
It makes it easier for us to read and understand your code.

servlet to servlet in same app
request.setAttribute("xml",xmlstr);
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("alias");
rd.forward(request,response);servlet to servlet in different app
URL url = new URL("http://localhost:8080/alias");
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
con.setDoOutput(true);
con.connect();
// send xml
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(con.getOutputStream());
pw.println(xmlstr);
pw.flush();
pw.close();
// get response
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
String res = br.readLine();
