connecting servlet with jsp

[soni29]

hi,
i have a jsp page with a form on it and wish to submit the data to a
servlet, in the form's action property do i have to specify the
servlet class as http://localhost:8080/myApps/servlet/Test or is there
anyway without having to map the entire ip address into it. Without
having to map would help as this way i can easily move it to another
ip without having to change the code.

Thank you.

As long as the JSP page is in the same application then submit it back as
"/servlet/Test", the rest of the path is known by the browser.

You can use relative paths for the form's action element. In this case you
can probably use <form action="/myApps/servlet/Test" >. No guarantees, I'm
not sure how the port number will be handled as I don't use it.
