I want to print from a servlet. I believe I have the correct syntax. But I get the message “delete these tokens” in Eclipse.
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html><head><title>Woohoo</title></head><body>\n" +
"<form id="report_form" name="report_form" method="post" action="AgReportServlet">\n"+
"<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="8">\n"+
"<tr>\n"+
" <td><label>Start Date<br />\n"+
" <select name="start_date" id="start_date">\n"+
" <option value="2000">2000</option>\n" +
" <option value="2001">2001</option>\n" +
" <option value="2002">2002</option>\n" +
" <option value="2003">2003</option>\n" +
" <option value="2004">2004</option>\n" +
" </select> </label></td>\n"+
" <td>End Date<br />\n"+
" <select name="end_date" id="end_date">\n"+
" <option value="2000">2000</option>\n"+
" <option value="2001">2001</option>\n"+
" <option value="2002">2002</option>\n"+
" <option value="2003">2003</option>\n"+
" <option value="2004">2004</option>\n"+
" </select></td>\n"+
" <td><label>Agricultural Zone<br />\n"+
" <select name="ag_zone" id="ag_zone">\n"+
" <option value="1">Zone 1</option>\n"+
" <option value="2">Zone 2</option>\n"+
" <option value="3">Zone 3</option>\n"+
" <option value="4">Zone 4</option>\n"+
" <option value="5">Zone 5</option>\n"+
" </select> </label></td>\n"+
" <td><label>Locality<br />\n"+
" <select name="locality" id="locality">\n"+
" <option value="here">There</option>\n"+
" <option value="there">There</option>\n"+
" </select> </label></td>\n"+
" <td><label><br />\n"+
" <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" /> </label></td>\n"+
"</tr>\n"+
" </table>\n"+
" </form>\n"+
"</body>\n"+
"</html>"
);
out.flush();
out.close();
The stack trace is as follows:

You’re putting double quotes inside your string like:
You need to escape them:
or use single quotes in the HTML:
