Hello:
I want to call different methods of a class based on whether the servlet
is called for the first time and all other subsequent calls.
I have a main FORM which calls the servlet for the first time and passes
parameters "first_time=true" through the query string.
<FORM Method="POST Action =
"http://hnoffice/cservlets/cWebcallback?first_time=true"
So depending on this query string, few methods are called in the
servlet.
Actually I want to constantly update the user with information after
every 5 seconds.
So I am calling this servlet again and again after every 5 seconds, but
now I want to pass parameter "first_time=false"
since the servlet is being called for the second time ( and not the
first time)
So I used the refresh concept with parameter "first_time=false"
<Meta http-equiv = "refresh"
content="5,http://hnoffice/cservlets/cWebcallback?first_time=false">
But in the servlet, when I try to retrieve the query string
"first_time=false", it gives me the same query string of
"first_time=true"...
Is is right to pass the query string in the content URL ???
All the methods are called in doPost( ) method of the servlet...But the
data is posted only once through the main form...Is this creating a
problem ???
Any help would be really appreciated !!!
Thanks in advance,
