i believe my comment was what trel was looking for. I normally don't recommend myself but in this case i believe that my post was a valid solution. (even though it's not based on MVC architecture). But i figure that if the user is asking this question then conforming to MVC is still a ways a way for him/her.

Finalized today. If Asker returns with additional needs in terms of your solution, please respond.

Class.forName("name of your driver").newInstance();
Connection con;
Statement stmt;
con = DriverManager.getConnectio
stmt = con.createStatement();
resultset rs = stmt.executeQuery("insert into ...");
stmt.close();
con.close();
and return the resultset to the servlet...then in sevlet do redirection.
A better way of doing the same thing else you will end up making your servlet clumsy and heavy.
