You might want to take a look at the Jakarta Struts framework:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/
It's an MVC-based framework which is based on a single-servlet controller.
The User's Guide on the web site (which is listed under Old Documents, for
some reason) should help you understand how all this works.

Subject: Servlet Controller - a few questions
> Can someone give me a simple example of a servlet controller as stated in
the
> MVC model.
> I've had a (very quick) look at the pet store example in the J2ee javasoft
> blueprints which seems to be very complicated for what it is doing.
>
> In my mind a controller is something that understands what should come
next.
> In the examples I have seen so far, the controller is given the name of
the next
> page it should forward the request to. It is the beans (business logic)
that
> determine what comes next. The controller servlet seems to be used as a
gateway
> to the jsp pages - is this for security ?
>
> Would a web-application with hundreds of jsp pages have a sinlge servlet
> controller ? or would there be a single servlet controller handling the
pages
> for each function of the web-application ?
>
> Thanks,
