Are you using any framework?

If don’t, the “Action” value it’s the JSP url that returns the JSP.

Example:
in your xml file, you has got something like this:

 <servlet>
        <servlet-name>createXml.jsp</servlet-name>
        <jsp-file>/createXml.jsp</jsp-file>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>createXml.jsp</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/createXml.jsp</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

Later, you need to do something like this:

function questype()
{

    $.each($('form[action='createXml.jsp']').serializeArray(), function(i, field) {
        values[field.name] = field.value;
    });
    $("<DIV WHENEVER YOU WANT TO PUT THE JSP RESULT>").load("createxml.jsp", values);
}
