Hi, it is perfectly legal writting javascript in servlet.
But you have to becareful when writting your html using out.println.
why dont use jsp for your front end??
BTW here is a simple code demostate the javascript function in servlet.
out.write ("<html><head></head><script language=\"javascript\">function
validateUpdate(){alert(\"Hi\")};</script><H1> Hi have a nice day. </H1>");
out.write ("<input type=\"button\" name=\"confirm\" value=\"confirm\"
onclick =\"validateUpdate()\">");
out.flush();
out.close();
