how to call servlet using an hyperlink....

You just link to it. Did you set it up in web.xml? What servlet-mapping did you use? Based on the servlet-mapping and the context root of your web application, it should be pretty straight-forward to figure out the URL to use.

Hi,

Think that you've defined a servlet "callme" and web.xml has been configured for this servlet. Use the following syntax to call it using hyperlink

<a href="http://yourdomain:yourport/callme">Call the servlet</a>

web.xml

<servlet>
    <description>All XML Functions</description>
    <display-name>XMLTestServlets</display-name>
    <servlet-name>XMLTestServlets</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.test.testProjects.XMLTestServlets</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>XMLTestServlets</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/XMLTestServlets</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>



in JSP:

<a href="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/XMLTestServlets">Link Name</a>

just try this...
