deploy the web Application
[Eg : J2EE5 and Tomcat 6.1]

g) Finish the wizard.

Format of Servlet Project

MyServlet (Project Name)
|
|_Web Pages (create html,jsp files here)
|
|-Configuration Files (configure web.xml file)

Eg:SelectDetails.java

 
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
 
public class SelectDetails extends HttpServlet {
 
    protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws ServletException, IOException {
        response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8");
        PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
        Connection conn = null;
 
        try {
            String branch = request.getParameter("branch");
            String userName = "root";
            String password = "123456";
            String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/Check";
            Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
            conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, userName, password);
            Statement s = conn.createStatement();
            s.executeQuery("SELECT id, name FROM student where branch = '" + branch + "'");
            ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet();
            while (rs.next()) {
                int idVal = rs.getInt("id");
                String nameVal = rs.getString("name");
 
                out.println("id = " + idVal + ", name = " + nameVal +"   ");
 
}
rs.close();
s.close();
 
} catch (Exception e) {
out.println(e.toString());
} finally {
out.close();
if (conn != null) {
                try {
                    conn.close();
                    out.println("Database connection terminated");
                } catch (Exception e) {
                }
            }
 
        }
    }
 
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws ServletException, IOException {
        processRequest(request, response);
    }
 
    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws ServletException, IOException {
        processRequest(request, response);
    }
}

Step 4 : Run the project.
URL => http://localhost:8084/MyServlet/select.html

Output for CSE
id = 2, name = Amit
id = 105, name = Moorthy
