As we know every jsp program there is a servlet behind the jsp page. I have used a jsp page to make a form (its a very small form), and in the same jsp i used scriptlet tags and made a way to get the inserted form data, and display it using out.print(). but the problem is it when i run it, the form is displayed., but when i submit is, it doesn't recognize the servlet page (error coming as "The requested resource is not available"). i will put the code below., please help me friends to solve this problem. thank you. i did this in netbeans. jsp page name is- "hello.jsp" the servlet page name behind the jsp page is: "hello_jsp.java".
<html>
<head><title>IF...ELSE Example</title></head>
<body>
<form action="hello_jsp" method="post">
<input type="text" name="y"/>
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
<%
if(request.getParameter("y")!=null) {
String s = request.getParameter("y");
if(s.equals("hello")){
out.print("welcome"+s);
}else{
out.print("not welcome");
}}
%>
</form>
</body>
</html>
My guess is that you need to change
<form action="hello_jsp" method="post">
to
<form action="hello.jsp" method="post">
<!-- ^---- change is here -->
The externally-accesible resource is the jsp, not the servlet. (By default, I'm sure some config-fu could change that.)
Or, of course, if the page is supposed to submit to itself, don't include action at all. The default is to submit to the current page.
<form method="post">
