Check you are getting values in list.Put some S.O.P after while loop in DAO class.
Also,There is a mistake in code. It should be
<select id="myselect" name="mydata" size="10">
<c:forEach items="${vacTracker}" var="vacTracker">
<option value="${vacTracker.approver}">${vacTracker.approver}</option>
</c:forEach>
</select>
Otherwise, It will create new select for each item.

Table definition:
create table PHOTO_HOLDER
(
ID NUMBER(5) not null,
TITLE VARCHAR2(50),
PHOTO BLOB
)
but after hitting fetch photo I am just getting photo id but not image.
Here I am not sure whether servlet is getting fired or not.
please help.thanks in advance.
There may be an issue with the URL formed for the image.
Please validate it again by simply looking at the source code of the generated JSP in the browser.
Just debug your code or use logging to investigate the issue.
Try it again after appending context path before the Servlet/JSP path as shown below:
<form id="form2" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<%=request.getContextPath() %>/getPhoto.jsp" method="get">
<img src="<%=request.getContextPath() %>/getPic?photoid=<%=p_id%>" />
I am trying to send an XMLHttp request from a JSP to a servlet and display a message in alert() received from server. But I am basically receiving the <script> <script/> part with some html tag.
Here is my jsp code:
<%# page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org /TR/html4/loose.dtd">

var xmlHttp;
function createXMLHttpRequest() {
if (window.ActiveXObject) {
xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
else if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
}
function startRequest() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
xmlHttp.open("post", "testServlet", true);
// var msg="Hello world";
xmlHttp.send(null);
}
function handleStateChange(){
if(xmlHttp.readyState == 4){
if(xmlHttp.status == 200){
alert("The server replied with: " +xmlHttp.responseText);
}
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form action="#">
<input type="button" value="Press ME!!"
onclick="startRequest();"/>
</body>
</html>
Here is my servlet code:
package pk1;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
#WebServlet("/testServlet")
public class testServlet extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public testServlet() {
super();
}
protected void doGet( HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)throws ServletException, IOException {
test(response);
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
test(response);
}
public void test(HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException{
response.setContentType("text/plain");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
String data = "This is a response from testServlet";
PrintWriter out=response.getWriter();
out.write(data);
out.flush();
out.close();
}
}
Since I am using Tomcat7 I guess I don't need to specify URL mapping? so what am I doing wrong here? kindly let me know.
Add this line
function startRequest() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
xmlHttp.open("post", "testServlet", true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'); // add here
xmlHttp.send(null);
And also in your servlet first try with doPost,
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.print("Hi ");
}
Hope it helps! notify if it works

the null exception occurs java.lang.NullPointerException
at cdt1.Servlet1.processRequest(Servlet1.java:66)
at cdt1.Servlet1.doPost(Servlet1.java:124)
the 1st one occurs when i try to read the pid value
the 2nd one when processRequest is being called.
i have looked up a lot of resources on the web that show how to use ajax and servlets and as per the things i've read i am doing nothing wrong. If anyone can point me in the right direction it will be awesome. Thanks in advance. I am using netbeans 7.3 with glassfish 3.1.2 if that makes a difference
solved it. it is necessary to set the content-type http header when using post to send data.
also needed during put requests
Here is my controller. In this I am using the reference data to send the List to my JSP page. Read the list into countryList which contains list of all country names populated using hibernate query
#SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
public class customerController extends SimpleFormController {
public customerController() {
setCommandClass(customer.class);
setCommandName("customer");
}
private customerDAO customerDAO;
public void setcustomerDAO(customerDAO customerDAO) {
this.customerDAO = customerDAO;
}
#Override
protected ModelAndView onSubmit(Object command) throws Exception {
customer customer = (customer) command;
customerDAO.savecustomer(customer);
return new ModelAndView("customerSuccess");
}
#Override
protected Map referenceData(HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
Map referenceData = new HashMap();
List countryList = customerDAO.listCountries();
referenceData.put("country", countryList);
return referenceData;
}
public ModelAndView redirect(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
ModelMap modelMap = new ModelMap();
return new ModelAndView("customer", modelMap);
}
}
Here is my DAO implementation:
public class customerDAOImpl implements customerDAO {
private HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate;
public void setSessionFactory(SessionFactory sessionFactory) {
this.hibernateTemplate = new HibernateTemplate(sessionFactory);
}
#Override
public void savecustomer(customer customer) {
hibernateTemplate.saveOrUpdate(customer);
}
#Override
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public List<customer> listcustomer() {
return hibernateTemplate.find("from customer");
}
#Override
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public List<countries> listCountries() {
return hibernateTemplate.find("from customer.countries");
}
}
Here is my JSP code:
<%# taglib prefix="spring" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags" %>
<%# taglib prefix="form" uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form" %>
<%# taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>

<form:options items="${country}" itemValue="country_id" itemLabel="name" />
</form:select>
<span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select country.</span></span></td>
</tr>
But nothing is getting populated into the drop down.
Name the list of countries something representing multiple countries, like, say, "countries".
There's also a customer country property.
