Hi Sourabh, Again, thanks for responding to my message.
I am a beginner with Servlets and I only had ONE (introduction) Java class, and no formal HTML training. I apologize if I'm asking very simple questions. In your reply below to my earlier question, I have seen examples on how to design HTML web pages but I'm not sure how to design them using indexes, parameters, etc. for servlets. What I want to accomplish with this Servlet is to create messages and allow my servlet to be passed an URL (query string), with the appropriate message index, and display a different page page for each message based on the index. If there is no message for an index, an error message should be displayed. -----Original Message----- From: Sourabh Kulkarni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 08:39 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Servlet Question Hi Melvin, Have the request as http://localhost:8080/myservlets/MessageServlet?index=3 (If the page index is 3). In servlet, use int index = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("index")); String message = (String)list.get(index); -sourabh ----- Original Message ----- From: Melvin Grady <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 5:24 PM Subject: Servlet Question > In my doGet method of my servlet I have created a List of messages.
