    This document describes how to invoke a Java servlet using an HTML form. It includes code for an HTML form page, a servlet class, and web.xml configuration file. The HTML form collects user input and submits it to the servlet. The servlet uses the getParameter method to retrieve the form data and write it back to the response. Session tracking is also demonstrated, with the servlet storing user data in the HTTP session and a second servlet page able to retrieve and display it.

    INVOKING SERVLETS USING HTML FORM

    AIM

    To invoke a java Servlet program using html form.

    ALGORITHM

     Identify the classes to be used.

     Define a class that should extend the one of the base class httpServlet.

     The service( ) method need to be coded to receive information from the browser
    whenever a client browser makes a request for the HTML page.

     Generate the source and compile it.

     Deploy the Servlet then execute the Servlet.

     To execute the program open the browser and then type:

    http://localhost:8080/sample/invokeServlet.html
    PROGRAM

    invokeServlet.html

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Student Information Form</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <center>
    <form name="form1" action="http://localhost:8080/sample/my_servletDemo">
    <h3>Enter student information in following fields -</h3>
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td><b>Roll Number</b></td>
    <td><input type="text" name="Roll Number" size="25" value=" "></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td><b>Student Name</b></td>
    <td><input type="text" name="Student Name" size="25" value=" "></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <tr>
    <td><b>Student Address</b></td>
    <td><input type="text" name="Address" size="50" value=" "></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td><b>Phone</td>
    <td><input type="text" name="Phone" size="25" value=" "></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
    <td><b>Total Marks</td>
    <td><input type="text" name="Total Marks" size="10" value=" "></td>
    </tr>

    </table>
    <input type="submit" value="submit">
    </form>
    </center>
    </body>
    </html>

    my_servletDemo.java

    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    import javax.servlet.*;
    public class my_servletDemo extends GenericServlet
    {
    public void service(ServletRequest req,ServletResponse res) throws
    ServletException,IOException
    {
    PrintWriter out=res.getWriter();
    Enumeration en=req.getParameterNames();
    while(en.hasMoreElements())
    {
    String name_received=(String)en.nextElement();
    out.print(name_received+ " = ");
    String value_received=req.getParameter(name_received);
    out.println(value_received);
    out.println(" ");
    }
    out.close();
    }
    }

    Web.xml

    <web-app>

    <!-- Servlet-definitions -->

    <servlet>
    <servlet-name>my_servletDemo </servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>my_servletDemo </servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <!-- Servlet-mappings -->

    <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>my_servletDemo </servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/my_servletDemo </ url-pattern >
    </servlet- mapping >

    </web-app>

    Steps to execute Servlets:

    1. Open Tomcat6.0 program directory.

    2. Double click webapps folder.

    3. Create a folder named sample.

    4. Place the invokeServlet.html file into the sample folder.

    5. Create a folder named WEB-INF in the sample folder.

    6. Place the web.xml file in the WEB-INF folder.

    7. Create a folder named classes in the WEB-INF folder.

    8. Place the class file of the java program my_servletDemo into the classes folder in the
    WEB-INF folder.
    OUTPUT

    http://localhost:8080/sample/invokeServlet.html
    CONCLUSION

    Thus the program for invoking Servlets from the html forms has been executed.
