There is a problem with this though. I start off with searchitem.jsp OR
searchmatch.jsp. I want to end up at itemlist.jsp, matchlist.jsp or
searchnone.jsp depending on what's said below.
When I click the button (which appears on both searchitem.jsp AND
searchmatch.jsp albeit with slightly different parameters) the servlet will
eventually (when I've coded it fully) do a search of the database to find
items based on the search parameters. If nothing is found then it redirects
the user to searchnone.jsp. If an item or more than one item is found then
the page will redirect to itemlist.jsp or matchlist.jsp depending on whether
the command has come from searchitem.jsp or searchmatch.jsp. How is best to
do this then based on what I've said?
I have the mapping twice yes, once for searchitem.jsp and once for
searchmatch.jsp, which both use the same servlet - SearchServlet. Is there
any wy map both pages in one go?

Yeah but that's not what I want to happen. I want the
servlet to redirect the user to searchnone.jsp as per
the servlet code and not to the servlet itself, if that
makes sense?
The ACTION parameter in a form specifies a URL, not a file system path.
Try replacing "WEB-INF/classes/SearchServlet" with "/searchmatch.jsp"
(not sure about the leading slash).
By the way, you have your servlet mapping specified twice.
