servlets and jsp doubt
hi,
I have written a servlet
import music.business.User;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import music.data.*;
public class RegisterUserServlet extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException,
ServletException {
doPost(request, response);
}
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException
{
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
String firstName = request.getParameter("firstName");
String lastName = request.getParameter("lastName");
String emailAddress = request.getParameter("emailAddress");
User user = new User();
user.setFirstName(firstName);
user.setLastName(lastName);
user.setEmailAddress(emailAddress);
try
{
if (UserDB.emailExists(emailAddress))
UserDB.update(user);
else
UserDB.insert(user);
} catch(Exception e) {}
session.setAttribute("user", user);
Cookie emailCookie = new Cookie("emailCookie", emailAddress);
emailCookie.setMaxAge(60*60*24*365*2);
emailCookie.setPath("/");
response.addCookie(emailCookie);
String url = "/catalog/writeDownload";
RequestDispatcher dispatcher =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(url);
dispatcher.forward(request, response);
}
}
my jsp code is calling this servlet
<jsp:include page="/includes/header.html" />
<jsp:include page="/includes/column_left_all.jsp" />
<!-- start the middle column -->
<td>
<script language="JavaScript">
function validate(form) {
if (form.firstName.value=="") {
alert("Please fill in your first name");
form.firstName.focus();
}
else if (form.lastName.value=="") {
alert("Please fill in your last name");
form.lastName.focus();
}
else if (form.emailAddress.value=="") {
alert("Please fill in your email address");
form.emailAddress.focus();
}
else {
form.submit();
}
}
</script>
