6. Request-Response Cycle
request
Web
Browser
URL
HTML, images, files
response
Web
Server
• When enter an address (URL) into
the address bar of a web browser or
click on a link, we generate a
request for a file
• The request is routed to a Web
server, which sends back a

7. Get Method
• Send parameters in the URL
http://localhost:8081/fstpro/sec.jsp?na
me=sonia
• sec.jsp
<%session.setAttribute("name",request.getP
arameter("name"));
session.setAttribute("age",request.getParam
eter("age"));
session.setAttribute("sex",request.getParam
eter("sex"));%>

9. HTML Forms
• Send parameters via forms
<FORM ACTION="printname.jsp" METHOD="get">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="firstname" SIZE=40>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" value="Print Name">
</FORM>
• Access these with the request object
<%
String name = request.getParameter("firstname");
...
%>

10. Post Method
• Post attaches parameter values to request
• A POST on the other hand will (typically)
send the information through a socket
back to the webserver and it won't show
up in the URL bar.
• You can send much more information to
the server this way - and it's not restricted
to textual data either.
