Hi All,
I am learning
JSP and
Servlet concept. In the process, trying to implement login and logout concept in an Application.
My design is as follows:
User enters his credentials in "login.jsp". The page is redirected to "Validate.java" which compares the name and password from the database and directs the request object into "homepage.jsp".
In "validate.java" i create a HttpSession Object using: HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
Now to logout of the Application i create a hyperlink in "homepage.jsp" which re-directs the application to logout.jsp. But I am not understanding where to invalidate the session which I created in "Validate.java".
I tried to session.invalidate() in the "logout.jsp" but 'session' object seems to be out of scope in this "logout.jsp". (editor says "session" object not found). Please tel me how can i implement logout functionality in my Application.
Thanks,
toddler.
