How to Navigate among 3 JSP ?

How to Navigate between JSP pages?

Hi,

I can't seem to navigate among 3 JSP pages.
Here is what I did.

I have the first JSP page where I have:

<BODY>
Welcome to Hello1
<form action="../Hello1" method="POST"> //since the servlet Hello1 is at JavaSource package and
//the Hello1.jsp is at WebContest/jsp/Hello1.jsp

<input type="submit" value="Process Hello1" >
</form>
</BODY>

Inside the Hello1.java Servlet, I have...

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
       doPost(request, response);
      }

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {


            try{
              getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/Hello2.jsp").forward(request, response);

              System.out.println("Inside Hello1 Servlet");
              Logger.log(Hello1.class, Logger.ERROR, "Inside Hello1 Servlet");

            }
            catch(Exception nEx){
              Logger.log(Hello1.class, Logger.ERROR, "ERROR: Inside Hello1 Servlet", nEx.getMessage());
            }
}

NOW I can come from Hello1.jsp thru the servlet to the Hello2.jsp

Now Here is what I have in Hello2.jsp

<BODY>
Welcome to Hello2
<form action="../Hello2" method="get">

<input type="submit" value="Process Hello1" >
</form>
</BODY>

Now insider Hello2.java servlet.... I have:
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
       doPost(request, response);
      }

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {


            try{
              getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/Hello3.jsp").forward(request, response);

              System.out.println("Inside Hello1 Servlet");
              Logger.log(Hello1.class, Logger.ERROR, "Inside Hello2 Servlet");

            }
            catch(Exception nEx){
              Logger.log(Hello1.class, Logger.ERROR, "ERROR: Inside Hello2 Servlet", nEx.getMessage());
            }
}

Now, I can't seem to go to Hello3.jsp ..

The explorer is saying can't find the resources ??

What should I do to make it work?

Let me know.

Thax.

Yes, I understand what you said.

I undsertood the relative path thing also while testing them.

Since my JSP's were under jsp folder I tried like:

From Hello1.jsp
<form action="../servlet/Hello1" method="POST">

Inside Hello1.java

getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/Hello2.jsp").forward(request, response);

From Hello2.jsp
<form action="../servlet/Hello2" method="POST">

Insicde Hello2.java
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/Hello3.jsp").forward(request, response);

and they did work fine.

Thanks a lot..
