Servlet to call html page

how would you publish html pages on the web. so far the html page that comes up is accessed from my hard drive ie it has H: in the URL address. can i avoid this happening?
any help is very much appreciated.

there is one other problem though. on the first html page there are 3 radio buttons and a submit button. depending on which radio button is selected, once the form is submitted it will take you to a particular html page.
once submitted it goes to the servlet with the value and name of the chosen radiobutton.
on the servlet side i have coded 'if' statements to identifiy which radio button has been chosen. from this it is to go to a sepcific page. however, from here i do i call the html page. the part of the code is below:
if(value.equals("Lectures"))
out.println("LECTURES");
out.println("<HTML>");
out.println("<HEAD><TITLE>Student's Information System</TITLE>");
out.println("<script language=JavaScript><!--function methodRetrieve(){ document.myform.submit();}</script>");
out.println("<script language=JavaScript><!--function methodEnterEdit(){ document.myform.submit();}</script>");
out.println("</HEAD>");
out.println("<BODY><FORM name=LECmyform METHOD=GET ACTION=http://brunhilde.dcs.qmul.ac.uk/~rkj1/tomcat/servlet/Lecture target=_top>");
out.println("<H1><p ALIGN=CENTER>Lecture Attendance Records</H1>");
out.println("Select one of the following:<BR><BR>");
out.println("<SELECT name=subjectMenu>");
out.println("<OPTION value=CS3>Computer Systems 3");
out.println("<OPTION value=GUI>Graphical User Interface");
out.println("<OPTION value=DLD>Digital Logic Design");
out.println("<OPTION value=DRA>Decision Risk Analysis");
out.println("</SELECT><BR><BR>");
out.println("<INPUT TYPE=button name=theButton VALUE=Retrieve Attendance Records &gt><BR><BR>");
out.println("<INPUT TYPE=button name=theButton VALUE=Enter/Edit Attendance Figures &gt><BR><BR>");
out.println("</FORM></BODY></HTML>");
this is just a rough html page but the actual page contains a lot more html and would be too silly to go about out.println it all in the servlet. is there a method that i can call from this if statement to call a html page?
please help me if you can since i've been trying this for a while...
thanks

  • Calling a servlet in a HTML page

    hi evryone,
    I'm new to servlets so i'm trying to create some simple applications to understand how it all works. The thing i'm trying to do is calling a servlet in a HTML page. I've already installed a Tomcat web server and I've created a servlet called Hello.
    public class Hello extends HttpServlet{
         public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException{
              res.setContentType("text/html");
              PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
              String name = req.getParameter("name");
              out.println("<HTML>");
              out.println("<HEAD><TITLE>Hello, " + name + "</TITLE></HEAD>" );
              out.println("<BODY>");
              out.println("Hello, " + name);
              out.println("</BODY></HTML>");
         public String getServletInfo(){
              return "testing servlet OK";
    }In my HTML page I've written the follwing code:
    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Just say hello</TITLE>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="../servlet/Hello">
    What's your name?
    <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="name"><P>
    <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT>
    </FORM>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>After running this HTML I get a text box and I thing I'm trying to do is, when I click on the button, the servlet will be loaded. However, the servlet can't be found and instead I get an error:
    type Status report
    message /servlet/Hello
    description The requested resource (/servlet/Hello) is not available.
    I suppose both file are in their approriate directories, but my class file still has the class extension. Do I need to change this? I hope that someone can help me.
    Thanks in advance!

    hi,
    the servlet wasn't in a package, so I changed that. It seems that I get an other error now:
    HTTP Status 503 - Servlet servlet/Hello is currently unavailable
    type Status report
    message Servlet servlet/Hello is currently unavailable
    description The requested service (Servlet servlet/Hello is currently unavailable) is not currently available.
    I still don't know what I may have forgotten, so i'm gonna resume what i have done till now.
    the servlet: (Hello.class)
    package servlet;
    import java.io.*;
    import javax.servlet.*;
    import javax.servlet.http.*;
    public class Hello extends HttpServlet{
         public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException{
              res.setContentType("text/html");
              PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
              String name = req.getParameter("name");
              out.println("<HTML>");
              out.println("<HEAD><TITLE>Hello, " + name + "</TITLE></HEAD>" );
              out.println("<BODY>");
              out.println("Hello, " + name);
              out.println("</BODY></HTML>");
         public String getServletInfo(){
              return "test servlet OK.";

  • How to call HTML page through JSP ?

    add;
    if(idpass == false)
    erre;
    it will work or not pl tell me

    If you do the redirect with javascript, the user cannot resubmit his login when he presses the refresh button. When he does press refresh, he only refreshes the redirect, not the form post that was before it. When he presses back the redirect will also kick him back in stead of going back to the login page. A simple javascript redirect page would look like this:
    <html>
    <body onload="document.location.href='myhtmlpage.htm';">
    </body>
    </html>But that is only if you care about resubmits of course.

  • Servlets: Scrolling a html page

    I have a servlet that generates a page with edit buttons,
    rows, columns etc. When the edit button is pressed it
    allows the current row to be edited (hence the name edit button ;). The problem is, when I press a button way down on the bottom of the page (scrollable) it works as it should (opens a html textfield(?) on the row) but the drawback is, that the page is hiked up and you have to scroll down and find the edit row. So is there a way I can scroll it down automatically near the edit row?
    Thank you

    Have I understod correctly?
    When you press the button the servlet generates a new page with the textfield.
    You call the servlet something like this in the button: www.site.com/servlet/theServlet.
    Then call it as www.site.com/servlet/theServlet#here and insert <a name="here"> before the textfield in the generated page (in the servlet code).

  • Possible to make servlet look like html page?

    Is it possible to register a servlet so that it looks like an html page?
    for example the servlet "HelloWorld", I want to make it look
    like "HelloWorld.html".

    What you need to do is configure your web server / servlet engine to pass EVERY request for a .html file to a servlet. This is typically done by passing the requests to a router servlet, which then reads the request URI, and then instantiates a servlet based on the desired file name. Therefore, if your requests goes to "HelloWorld.htm", the router would instantiate the class "HelloWorld", probably by calling Class.forName("HelloWorld"), and then call its doService(), doPost(), or doGet() methods.

  • Problems calling Java Servlets from HTML pages Online

    Hello
    I have created a Web site using Java Servlets, and have acquired some servlet enabled web-space however i am having some difficulty in calling the actual servlets from the HTML pages i was using the line of code as follows
    http://localhost:8080/servlet/....
    followed by the name eg.
    http://localhost:8080/servlet/Login
    however this doesn't seem to be working i have also tried using the exact address of the servlet but this didn't work either
    i.e ..servlet/Login.java
    I was wondering would anyone have any idea as in how the servlets should be called
    Thanks very much

    Once you write the Servlet code, you have to compile and put the classes in the server classpath. To refer these servlets from your pages, you have to configure them in the server configuration(typical a xml file). There you define how you are going to refer to the servlet(/servlet/Logon) and the correponding class.

  • How to call a html page from servlet

    i want to link a servlet to a html page, if i use requestdispatcher, it says XXX.html is not available, can anybody help

    Can you be more specific about what you're trying to do? Can't read your mind =). But if you mean you want to just have an static HTML page such as a header read by the servlet you can you the requestdispatcher include().
    Create a servlet to generate a page, and then map it as /getPage in the web.xml file. Then you can use:
    // header
    RequestDispatcher rd = ...getRequestDispatcher("/getPage");
    rs.include(req, res);
    // the rest of the servlet output
    // and you can do another one for the footer down here
    rd = ...getRequestDispatcher("/getPageFooter");
    rs.include(req, res);
    and it'll output the HTML in the servlet.
    Hope this helps

  • How can I generate a html page in a servlet-applet connection?

    Hello, I have an applet which contains an ok button, when I click this button, I need that servlet generate an html page and view it in browser. How can I do this?
    Thanks

    But with this method only is possible I think open a page web, and if it is possible call url of the servlet, you generate other request and response object (other call to method doGet or doPost because ShowDocument needs parameter url), so the previously request when I click button ok it's no the same and how I obtain the prinwriter from first request, showDocument don't obtain html page from printwriter.
