Craig, Thank you for the feedback. This is my first Servlet / Tomcat
project and apparently I have some things confused. Within my web
application I do have a Servlet named, SAWSServlet.
It was my impression that when I export my application to a WAR file
that I should name it with the exact same name as the Servlet. So
I've created a war file called SAWSServlet.war, which when unpacked
creates a SAWSServlet folder under the Tomcat webapps directory.
Also, to provide more of the details which you had asked about.
My initial logon JSP just has a simple form as follows:
<FORM action="/SAWSServlet" class="formClass" method="get" >
<INPUT type="HIDDEN" id="action" name= "action" value="logon">
<p>UserId: <INPUT type="TEXT" id="UserId"
name= "UserId" width="50"></p>
<p>Password: <INPUT type="PASSWORD" id="Password"
name= "Password" width="50"></p>
<p><INPUT type="SUBMIT" id="Submit" value="Logon" width="50"></p>
</FORM>
The URL generated when that form is submitted is:
http://localhost:8080/SAWSServlet/action=logon&userId=test&password=test
Is it possible to configure Tomcat so that when the form in my JSP is
submitted that it will generate a URL such as:
http://localhost:8080/myServletsName?parm1=anAction&parm2=value2
Lastly, I used the auto-deploy feature of Tomcat and just placed my WAR
file in the webapps directory. Therefore I haven't made any
modifications to conf/server.xml or conf/web.xml.
Again, thanks for all of the help!
Regards,
Randy
