login servlet

[Aymen Benhmida]

hi guys,

i have a login servlet which is supposed to extract (login/password) from database in order to authenticate a user, and a jsp containing the form to fill the data how can i make my servlet intercept the submit action from my form to do its work

<form id="login" name="login" method="post" action="/lmf/login"  onsubmit="return verif();">
  <fieldset>
  <legend>Login</legend>
  
  <p>
  <label for="indica">Identifiant</label>
  <input name="login" type="text" id="login" maxlength="32" />

  </p>
  <p>
  <label for="nomcli">Code confidentiel</label>
  <input name="passwd" type="password" id="passwd" maxlength="32" />
  </p>
  </fieldset>
	<input name="valider" type="submit" value="Valider" class="bouton" />
</form>

in the web.xml i've done the following configuration

<servlet>
		<servlet-name>login</servlet-name>
		<servlet-class>mypackage.LoginServlet</servlet-class>
	</servlet>



	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>login</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>/lmf/login</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>

but this does not seem to work. What i'm doing wrong?

Can you show us the errors/problems you are getting when you try to deploy and run it?

actually i don't have an error but the page on the browser stays the same

http://localhost:8080/wlibertym/lmf/projet/

That isn't the URL for your login servlet. So I don't understand the question. Do you think that URL should cause the login servlet to be executed? If so, why? Or what are you expecting?
