I’m new in using JSP and I need to get a value from a textbox by upon clicking a button. I am using Java Netbeans with the server apache tomcat. This is how it works…

The textbox is enclosed in an HTML tag <table> once the user inputs a value, he clicks the button then a message box will appear with the value he entered.

I am not familiar with JSP and it gives me a hard time.

    My answer is quite familiar with the first answer.

    mainPage.jsp

    <html>
  <head>
    <title>Your Title Here</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form action="sample.jsp" method="POST">
      <input type="text" id="firstname" name="firstname" />
      <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
    </form>
  </body>
</html>

    sample.jsp

    <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%
    String firstname = request.getParameter("firstname");
    /* 
     * Some code here
     */
%>

    I’m also using apache tomcat.

    You have to configure your web.xml as said in the first answer.

    Hope that helps.
