How can I do this? Suppose I have jsp page aaa.jsp. From aaa.jsp on form action I have made a call to a servlet xxx.java. In xxx.java I have written code to retrieve data from database through List and data is being retrieve.
Now I want to pass this List to another jsp page bbb.jsp from xxx.java. How can I do this? How can I get the accurate path of the bbb.jsp? To be frankly, managing path is one of the great headache to me. Please help me.

1)callServlet.jsp:
<form method="post" action="../Servlet"> <input type="submit" value="Call Servlet"> </form>
2)Put the servlet in the classes folder and do the servlet mapping in web.xml.Here is Servlet.java:
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class Servlet extends HttpServlet{
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException{
ArrayList list=new ArrayList();
try{
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test", "root", "root");
Statement st=con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery("select * from employee");
while(rs.next()){
list.add(rs.getString("name"));
list.add(rs.getString("address"));
list.add(rs.getString("contactNo"));
list.add(rs.getString("email"));
}
req.setAttribute("data", list);
RequestDispatcher rd = req.getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/data.jsp");
rd.forward(req, res);
}
catch(Exception e){
}
}
}
3)data.jsp:
<%@page language="java" import="java.util.*" %>
<html>
<body>
<table border="1" width="303">
<tr>
<td width="119"><b>Name</b></td>
<td width="168"><b>Address</b></td>
<td width="119"><b>Contact no</b></td>
<td width="168"><b>Email</b></td>
</tr>
<% Iterator itr;%>
<% List data=(List)request.getAttribute("data");
for(itr=data.iterator(); itr.hasNext(); ){
%>
<tr>
<td width="119"><%=itr.next()%></td>
<td width="168"><%=itr.next()%></td>
<td width="168"><%=itr.next()%></td>
<td width="168"><%=itr.next()%></td>
</tr>
<%}%>
</table>
</body>
</html>
