Servlets :: Making JSP Page To Display On First Request
Jan 7, 2015
my Servlet as I would like my Servlet to run first and to create a session var then forward the value to the JSP (the GUI ) and have the JSP able to send a var back to the Servlet for reprocessing and update the session var to again be sent to the JSP and so on . - The Servlet contains logic to handle incorrect input types and directly out puts a HTML error page..
Below I will add the code I have so far and a link to the question in my Text Book.
My code:
JSP Page:
bank.JSP :
<%
//Starts outputting the HTML Form
%>
<html>
<head>
How does web server differentiates between request for static web page and request for dynamic web page? i think if web server receives request for static page directly renders that to server or else if request is for dynamic web page passes that to web app which processes the request and renders that to client. bUT how does web server differentiates between both the request.
1. Does a GET HTTP request contain a request body? If yes what is contained in it? Are the request headers also part of the request body? 2. Is it possible to send a byte array as part of the GET request in its body? 3. Is there a size limitation on the data that can be sent via a GET request?
I have a jsp with an img tag whose src is set to request a servlet to display a chart. This is called from another jsp form where user can select various filters. The first time the request is made all works great. but if the user changes the filter settings and and makes the servlet request a second time the chart stays the same. I have verified the new filter values are being set but the servlet is only being called on the initial request.at the head or called servlet I have(I also call a jquery empty on the div that holds the chart between requests. at the moment it just displays the former chart). It is like it is using cache:
Having with LSL and JSF working together? The only thing I have gotten to work with LSL is PHP, and I know I could get JSP working with it with a little research. However, I rather not mix them on my server.
The only requirement for LSL to work with it is there needs be a custom page that can handle get and post request directly. I have not done this with JSF yet so I'm wondering how that would look.
1. If we have and xhtml page and we just have a datatable to show some records through a managed bean, I think there is no validation phase, apply request values phase... so it would be a faces request but not with the lifecycle of a jsf request, right?
2. In the previous case because the normal phases of a jsf request are not going to be called, the method that will be called in the backing bean to get the records, could be called more than once although its not a normal faces request?
When we forward the request to a jsp , I noticed that the url bar address does not change .
I made a form form.html , and set action to a servlet then in servlet class I set an attribute and forward the request to jsp ,which prints the value of that attribute.But the url in address does not actually points to that jsp to which i forwarded the request.
I have to forward my request to another webApplication using post request parameters. In this case Webaplication-1 need send request using post request params to Webapplication-2 & once Webaaplication-2 receives request it has to process & display output.
For this have tried below 2 options which Servlet API provides.
1. RequestDispatcher : this will used to forward request to another resource within the application.
2. sendRedirect() : this method support doGet() of Servlet.
3. Using HttpClient, which is provided by Apache able to do but it will not displaying Output,It sending back response to Webapplication-1 .
Is there any option which will handover request from one webapplication to another webapplication.
We have a big application which is implemented in basic servlet. WE have Get and Post request in servlet. I want to provide them security if any malicious attack will happen on the form submit method. I want to make it secure. In detail, suppose if any user want to submit form/ any ajax request from my application and if he/she changes the method of submission from POST to GET then how I will recognize this?
I know that HTTPServletRequest object have GetMethod() but how I will detect that it is not changed by Tamper data/Fidler/Watir. One more way, I googled is by using GetQueryString() method but lot of the places I have query paramater in my POST request.
I have to send a request with post parameters from one web application to another web application,both are running different servers.
In my application i don't have any JSP,html only controller part which will handle request extract request parameters & based on request params i'll do a web service call.
My current requirement is based on request parameters i'll send request to another web application with received parameters.
I tried with sendRedirect() ,but it support only get() method.
I am building an application that has two types of users. While some of the fields (ie: username, email address, password) are the same for both user types, other fields are different for each user type.
Therefore, I would like to split up the process of registering (ie: writing the user info to database) into two parts:
1) registering the common fields among both user types (servlet 1) 2) registering the specific fields based on the user type that is registering (servlet 2a and servlet 2b).
Therefore, once servlet 1 is processed, I wish to forward the request to servlet 2a or 2b depending on what type of user is registering.
I wish to do this since I will have other parts of my application that will make use of servlets 2a and 2b as well. Is this possible to do (redirect request parameters from jsp to servlet and then to another servlet)?
After confirmation to the login details I added new cookie having logging information and then dispatched this request to controller servlet where this cookie is checked if it is present then user is forwarded to a particular page. Otherwise is redirected to the sign in page. Now the problem is when we add cookies then it is added into "response" object and when we get cookies we get them from "request" object. So for the first time redirection to controller servlet "response" object would not have this cookie as it is not available in "request" object. But will be available for later requests.
My question is what is the way to get this cookie in the first request. Or is there any way to send refresh like response to the browser so that this cookie is added??
We are starting to deploy virtual desktops in our factory.I have a file upload form that works on conventional desktops but fails on the virtual machines. Notice the lifecycle parameter is not being passed to servlet on these virtual machines but does get passed when ran from standard desktop machine.
I have used jsp's to passing request to the servlet or controllers. but we can also pass request from javascript using ajax and sending data using json.
what is the good approach and why? or does it depends on the situations? is yes, what kind of situations?
I would like getting a specific parameter name from the set of request parameters. In particular the name of the 4th parameter in the request parameter set.
/** * Servlet implementation class InvoicingDeptServlet */ @WebServlet("/InvoicingDeptServlet") public class InvoicingDeptServlet extends HttpServlet { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; //Make arraylist global object ArrayList<InvoiceData> invoiceList = new ArrayList<InvoiceData>();
Now that I have set up my dev environment on a new machine with new eclipse, it does not work.
It displays Ï instead of π.
I've already tried adding URIEncoding="UTF-8" to server.xml which did not work since it only affect get not post. I figured out how to get the parameter with correct encoding on the new system:
How the server know the device type from which request came from. I have requirement to implement the logic based on the type of the device. Eg: Mobile, TAB, PC or Laptop. Is there any existing API in Jquery to know the details about the client?
I know when including remember me token in request header, it will contain expiry date. does this mean the token generated must be able to be reversed back to it's original string?
In one jsp page, I submit a form with a message body with following html code (which is store in "MsgBody" in my request)
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" />
[code]....
But when I submit my form, I received in my servlet a parameter "MsgBody" without several tag like <html>/<body> ... do you know this behavior, by default tag are delete ?
I have a controller that on the basis of commands (formaction and subaction) dispatch requests to different jsp pages. But somehow when I am debugging my application, I can find duplicate request coming to the controller, so one jsp page does load twice. I am not sure from where the duplicate request is generating.
I am trying to make the variables that will be taken in from a type='text' box in HTML in NetBeans available to the other servlets as well as store and display the latest value passed into these boxes on the servlet page when the submit button is clicked or display null if the box has not yet received a value. However, I do not understand how to do this and do not understand as to why my current output is always null?
i) Is ServletContext().getAttribute("name of my textbox") really the way to pass the attributes to all servlets?
ii) Is ServletContext() passed in the service request?
iii) How to store the latest value passed into the submit box?
