I could use a giant String being returned from some static method .. but the problem is that i would have to do the following:

static String getString()
{
        String str = "<html>"
                        +"<title>"
                        +"ding dong bells"
                        +"</title>"
                        +"<body></body></html>";
        
        return str;
}

In the above code i will have to type in the quotes and + signs everywhere since if the string gets too long it will all be on one line and the html code from a developer stand point would not be maintainable.

Are there any other better ideas to do this ?

Hi,

Many times we come across a lot of out.println( ... ) statements in our servlets:

public class MyServlet extends ....
{
        ....
        ....

        doPost( ... )
        {
                .....
                .....
                out.println("<html>");
                out.println("<title>");
                out.println("ding dong bells");
                out.println("</title>");
                out.println("<body>");
                out.println("</body>");
                out.println("</html>");
                ......
        }
}

I do know that if your code has more html .. its better to write a .jsp file instead of a servlet.java file
There are some cases where this is unavoidable and I was wondering if there was a way to do something like below in a .java file:


public class MyServlet extends ....
{
        ....
        ....

        doPost( ... )
        {
                .....
                .....

<Some kind of tag that signals to the compiler that whatever follows is to be "out.println(... )" >

<html>
<title>
ding dong bells
</title>
<body>
</body>
</html>

</end of the signalling tag>
......
}
}
