Question

My html page has

<div id="dialog" title="Items">
<div id="username">
<h4>Welcome <i><%=(String) session.getAttribute("username")%></i></h4>
</div>
<div id="disconnect">
<button>LogOut</button>
</div>

$(“#disconnect”).click(function(){

 $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "XXXservlet",
        success: function(data) {
             window.location.replace("index,html");}

}):

Now upon click on the log out button I want to call disconnect function in my servlet.Merely redirecting to a new page wont help.I want it the user to log out of application..How do I achieve with jquery??

Note:I am using doPost in servlet

Sorry if it is a simple question.I am begineer to programming

Thanks……..

Answer 1

• You can take help of DWR to accomplish this , on click execute servlet’s method using javascript (ajax)

• You can use pure jQuery and make ajax call (GET) to some servlet which will do it for you
