Is your servlet mapping in your web-xml file "servlet" or "/servlet"?

I"m having a bit of a problem passing a parameter from a jsp page to a servlet. I print out the variable in the jsp page and I get a value but when I print it from a servlet, I get NULL. Any ideas?? Here is what I'm using: jsp page: <form action='servlet/processServlet' method='POST'> ... request.setAttribute("txtbox",ponumber); </form> in servlet public void doPost(HttpServletRequest, request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException, ServletException { response.setContentType("text/html"); PrintWriter out=response.getWriter(); String ponum = (String) request.getAttribute("txtbox"); out.println("ponum=" + pponum); } thanks, Will ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
