I've been following this thread, and I know I can't help you with the information you've provided. If you want help, I suggest you: 1. describe your directory structure 2. post your web.xml 3. describe where your servlet is located in the directory structure 4. describe the URL you use to get your form 5. describe the URL you would like to use for your ACTION parameter in your form 6. describe the exact error messages you are getting, don't say "didn't work"...Tomcat tells you more than that, you'll help us help you if you tell us what Tomcat is telling you. All of the above is just advice, you can take it or leave it, though I would bet that if you take it you will get your problem solved quickly.
