per your web.xml
http://localhost:8080/WEB-INF/classes/SearchServlet?itemvalue=type+search+criteria+here
should be
http://localhost:8080/searchmatch.jsp?itemvalue=type+search+criteria+here

Hi all,
Apologies for the stupidity of this email but I'm having a few servlet problems. I've created the following SearchServlet.java file, compiled it into a class file using Netbeans then copied the class file into my WEB-XML/classes file.
Now for testing the servlet is very limited but when I try to run the jsp page
the page is redirected to
http://localhost:8080/WEB-INF/classes/SearchServlet?itemvalue=type+search+criteria+here
and not /searchnone.jsp as specified. When it's redirected to the first page
though all I get is my error.jsp page which is set up to catch 404 error pages
as defined in my web.xml page. So it isn't finding something, what I don't
know though.
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?
Mark
searchitem.jsp:

Use this page to search through the different items that we stock. All searches are done by
key words. If using multiple words please use a comma after every different
word.</i>.
