Two questions...(1) Does your servlet implement a doPost() method? Since you are POSTing the form, you need to do that.
(2) Is there a typo in your form there? I see: <form method=3D"POST" action=3D"BeerSelect"> That's not proper... my guess is you want: <form method="3DPOST" action="3DBeerSelect"> Frank Developer Developer wrote:
does anybody know how to fix this problem. Invocation of servlet prompts a messagebox posing a questions " do you want to save this ?" instead of executing it and returing the output in the html document. :( On 10/10/05, Developer Developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:I wrote my first html and servlet and deployed it on tomcat 5.5. The html works okay when I call it from the browser. The servlet too works okay when I call its doget() method by invoking it from the browser. EG:. http://localhost:8080/VBeer/BeerSelect However, when i try to invoke the servlet from an html form I get a message box - (file download security warning) - Do you want to save this file ? It has a funny number suffixed to the my servlet name. Not sure what is happening. Here is my HTML code snippet. <body> <h1 align =3D "center">Beer selecton Page </h1> <form method=3D"POST" action=3D"BeerSelect"> <p>Select Beer Characteristics</p> Thanks !
