I'm new to servlets and jsp files, and I encountered the following problem:
I have the following jsp form file:
<FORM action="http://myApp/register" method="post">
<P>
First name: <INPUT type="text" name="firstname"><BR>
Last name: <INPUT type="text" name="lastname"><BR>
email: <INPUT type="text" name="email"><BR>
<INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Male"> Male<BR>
<INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Female"> Female<BR>
<INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> <INPUT type="reset">
</P>
</FORM>
and a servlet which handles a doPost request on the url above.
I want to give the values of the form (such as the first name and last name) to the doPost request.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot! :)
You can get all the parameters by their name as request.getParameters("firstname") to get the value of the input fields.
public class ServletClass extends HttpServlet {
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
String firstName = request.getParameter("firstname");
String lastName = request.getParameter("lastName");
// and so on.....
}
}

I want to get parameters from my jsp to my servelet.
so i used input form and it works for the name and the last name but it doesn't work for my ID.
Here is the code of my JSP:
<tr>
<td><form method="post" action="ServBddInsa">
<input type="hidden" name="id" id="id" value="testId"/>
<c:out value="${ utilisateur.id }" />
</form>
</td>
<td><c:out value="${ utilisateur.prenom }" /></td>
<td><c:out value="${ utilisateur.nom }" /></td>
<td><form method="post" action="ServBddInsa">
<p>
<label for="prenom"> Prenom :</label> <input type="text"
id="prenom" name="prenom" />
<label for="nom"> Nom :</label> <input type="text" id="nom"
name="nom" />
</p>
<input type="submit" name="editer" value="editer" />
</form></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
and this of my servlet:
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
BddInsa listU = new BddInsa();
request.setAttribute("utilisateur", listU.recupererList());
this.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/WEB-INF/bddinsa.jsp").forward(request, response);
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
Utilisateur utilisateurs = new Utilisateur();
utilisateurs.setNom(request.getParameter("nom"));
utilisateurs.setPrenom(request.getParameter("prenom"));
utilisateurs.setId(request.getParameter("id"));
System.out.println(utilisateurs.getPrenom());
System.out.println(utilisateurs.getNom());
System.out.println(utilisateurs.getId());
BddInsa listU = new BddInsa();
listU.Editer(utilisateurs);
request.setAttribute("utilisateurs", listU.recupererList());
this.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/WEB-INF/bddinsa.jsp").forward(request, response);
}
}
I get NULL when I try to see the value of id
Thank you for your help !
Please can you try to use only one open and one close form tag? I think you problem is because you have two <form method="post" action="ServBddInsa"> . So the submit button is on the second form. In this case the hidden field of the first form is not considered and it is not sent.
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="HBO">HBO <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="FOXP">FOX Película <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="FOX">FOX + <br><br>
<input type="submit" value="cotizar" name="Cotizar" />
<br><br>
I'm trying to bring from an index.jsp the premium parameter of a checkbox, in a servlet of a client of a web service. I have to save it as a list but what I have tried has not worked
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String plan = request.getParameter("plan");
String PREMIUM = request.getParameter("premium");
How do I convert request.getParameter ("premium") into a list?
Try this:
String[] premiums = request.getParameterValues("premium");
You need to put all the checkbox inside of form then only multiple values will be sent to server.
HTML:
<form method="post">
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="HBO">HBO <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="FOXP">FOX Película <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="premium" value="FOX">FOX + <br><br>
<input type="submit" value="cotizar" name="Cotizar" />
</form>
Servlet:
To get multiple values we need to use getParameterValues(), if you any value for the given parameter name it will give string array of values. If we have one value it will given string array with length of 1.
String[] premiums = request.getParameterValues("premium");
If no value sent to server then above method will return null value.
This is my first time setting up a Java Servlet, I am trying to retrieve values into my Java Servlet from my input fields in my JSP Form when the user clicks a specific button. I also, am unsure if I used the proper practice for creating my Servlet. I simply right-clicked on my Apache Tomcat 8.0 server and then selected new Servlet.
Java Servlet:
#WebServlet("/loginServlet")
public class loginServlet extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 3719628899527775749L;
public loginServlet() {
super();
}
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
response.getWriter().append("Served at: ").append(request.getContextPath());
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
String username = request.getParameter("username");
String password = request.getParameter("password");
// do some processing here...
// get response writer
PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
// build HTML code
String htmlRespone = "<html>";
htmlRespone += "<h2>Your username is: " + username + "<br/>";
htmlRespone += "Your password is: " + password + "</h2>";
htmlRespone += "</html>";
// return response
writer.println(htmlRespone);
}
}
JSP:
<form name="loginForm" action="loginServlet" method="post" id="loginForm">
<div class="imgcontainer">
<img src="images/img_avatar2.png" alt="Avatar" class="avatar">
</div>
<div class="container">
<label><b>Username</b></label>
<input type="text" placeholder="Enter Username" name="uname" required>
<label><b>Password</b></label>
<input type="password" placeholder="Enter Password" name="psw" required>
<button id="loginButton" name="loginButton" type="submit">Login</button>
<button id="registerButton" name="registerButton" type="button">Register</button>
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked"> Remember me
</div>
<div class="container" style="background-color:#f1f1f1">
<button type="button" class="cancelbtn">Cancel</button>
<span class="psw">Forgot password?</span>
</div>
</form>
Your request attribute's name are uname and psw which are added on Jsp page. So you must change your doPost method like this.
String username = request.getParameter("uname");
String password = request.getParameter("psw");
Or
You must change your form in jsp page like this:
<label><b>Username</b></label>
<input type="text" placeholder="Enter Username" name="username" required>
<label><b>Password</b></label>
<input type="password" placeholder="Enter Password" name="password" required>
I want to get the values for the rows which is then sent to a Java servlet then read by another page and inserts those values into the text boxes for the user to edit and write it back into the text file.
So it gets read by ProductIO which reads the textfile.
Its then entered into a jsp table
<c:forEach var="product" items="${products}">
<tr>
<td ><c:out value='${product.code}'/></td>
<td ><c:out value='${product.description}'/></td>
<td >${product.priceCurrencyFormat}</td>
<td><form action="editproduct" method="post">
<input type="submit" value = "Edit">
</form>
</td>
<td><form action="deleteproduct" method="post">
<input type="submit" value = "Delete">
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
The User Clicks either the delete or edit button which will then send action to either the deleteproduct servlet or the editproduct servlet(only asking about the edit for now)
The edit product servlet
#Override
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
String url = "/editproduct.jsp";
getServletContext()
.getRequestDispatcher(url)
.forward(request, response);
String action = request.getParameter("action");
if (action == null) {
action = "editproduct"; // default action
} else if (action.equals("editproduct")) {
String productCode = request.getParameter("productCode");
String descString = request.getParameter("description");
//HttpSession session = request.getSession();
Product product = (Product) session.getAttribute("cart");
if (product == null) {
product = new Product();
}
getServletContext()
.getRequestDispatcher(url)
.forward(request, response);
}
}
Which the three Values are put into three text boxes on the editProduct.jsp page(where im having a problem getting the values to insert into the text boxes for it to be written back to the text file with the new information)
<form action="Product" method="post" >
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="add">
<label>Code:</label>
<input type="text" name="code" value='<%=request.getAttribute("code")%>'
required><br>
<label >Description:</label>
<input type="text" name="desc" value='<%=request.getAttribute("description")%>'
required ><br>
<label >Price:</label>
<input type="text" name="price" value='<%=request.getAttribute("price")%>'
required ><br>
<label> </label>
<!--<input type="submit" value="Update Product" class="margin_left">-->
<!--<input type="submit" value="View Product" class="margin_left">-->
<button type="submit">Update</button><br>
I can share more code if needed.
You aren't calling request.setAttribute() with any of the attributes in your Servlet. I assume you meant to add something like
request.setAttribute("code", productCode);
request.setAttribute("description", descString);
request.setAttribute("price", product.getPrice());
Before forwarding the request.
I am newbie in HTML and Servlets. I have such a idex.jsp contents:
<form action="createCSV" method="get">
<input type="text" value="D:/">
<input type="submit" value="create">
</form>
And I want to use value of <input type="text" value="D:/"> inside of method Get in my Servlet:
protected void doGet( javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response )
throws javax.servlet.ServletException, IOException{}
Please, help me
change the input field in your html form like this:
<input type="text" name="userInput" value="D:/">
inside the servlet do that:
String userInput = request.getParameter("userInput");
