Try playing with Javascript...
say you selected something from a combobox, you can do something like:
<select name="faveGame" onchange="doDisplayItem()">
<option value="ageofempires">Age of Empires II
<option value="counterstrike">Counterstrike
</select>
the javascript stuff could look like:
var newWindow
function doDisplayItem() {
gameUrl = <your servlet URL>
newWindow=window.open(gameUrl, "<a parameter>", "<some parameters here>");
newWindow.focus();
}

Subject: Opening a new Web browser inside a servlet
> Hello to everybody,
>
> My problem is simple but I really don't know how to figure out it;
simply I have to write a servlet which writes the results as form HTML in a
new Web browser.
> i.e. I select, from a Web page, a parameter which I pass to a servlet and
the servlet must show the results in a a new web page since I don't want
lose the first HTML page (to allow the user to make a new, different
selection, for example). I've though to write the new HTML page in a
different broser, but I have not any idea how to open it from a servlet.
