I have the following html file:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\webapps\Deepanjan\HTML\html1.html

I have the following xml file:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\webapps\Deepanjan\WEB-INF\web.xml

I have the following servlet:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\webapps\Deepanjan\Servlet1\Servlet1.class

Tomcat is up & running.
The html file shows up fine and has the following cantent:

<html>
    <head><title>This is the title</title></head>
    <body>
        <form action="Servlet1" methed="get">
            <input type="submit">
        </form>
    </body>
</html>

The xml file has the following content:
<web-app>
<display-name>counter</display-name>
<description>
Welcome to Tomcat
</description>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Servlet1</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>Servlet1</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Servlet1</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Servlet1</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

When I click on the Submit button on the HTML file, I get:
Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Tomcat 5.5/webapps/Deepanjan/HTML/Servlet1?

What's the problem?

Hi Cat Dog a.s,

you should sue your parents for giving you this name.

The problem is that you double-clicked the file "html1.html", which just
opened this file in your browser.

What you want is probably to open the URL

http://localhost:8080/Deepanjan/html1.html

in your browser. How this URL looks depends on your tomcat and webapp
configuration.

Timo
