I am new to JSP. so begin with, I decided to go slow. Right now I am just trying to get user input and print it back using Netbean.
Here is the code which I made. Can you please tell me why this is not printing?
package newpackage;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
public class ReturnName extends HttpServlet {
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
try {
/* TODO output your page here
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>Servlet ReturnName</title>");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<h1>Servlet ReturnName at " + request.getContextPath () + "</h1>");
out.println("</body>");
out.println("</html>");
*/
} finally {
out.close();
}
}
// <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="HttpServlet methods. Click on the + sign on the left to edit the code.">
/**
* Handles the HTTP <code>GET</code> method.
* @param request servlet request
* @param response servlet response
*/
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
processRequest(request, response);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
String getName = request.getParameter("name");
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>Servlet ReturnName</title>");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println(getName);
out.println("</body>");
out.println("</html>");
}
/**
* Handles the HTTP <code>POST</code> method.
* @param request servlet request
* @param response servlet response
*/
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
doGet(request, response);
}
/**
* Returns a short description of the servlet.
*/
public String getServletInfo() {
return "Short description";
}// </editor-fold>
}
Code for the form:
<form action="EnterName" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
Enter your name:<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="name">
<input type="submit">
</form>
Thank you.
