you need to identify a program that submit will post to as in this example
<form method="POST" action='chat' name="loginForm"> <input type="hidden" name="action" value="login"/> Nickname: <input type="text" name="nickname"/> </form> where the contents of web.xml map chat to submit its contents to ChatServlet <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>ChatServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/jsp/chat/chat</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> where ChatServlet maps to the ChatServlet class located in /WEB-INF/classes/chat/ChatServlet <servlet> <servlet-name>ChatServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>chat.ChatServlet</servlet-class> </servlet> Martin ______________________________________________ Disclaimer and confidentiality note Everything in this e-mail and any attachments relates to the official business of Sender.
