i made three files ->javaservlet, xml and html
xml file gives mapping,
html takes one number as parameter and forwards it into javaservlet
java servlet finds its square and prints it but in the browser when i enter a number and submit it the following error is shown
HTTP Status 404 – Not Found
Type Status Report
Message The requested resource [/ExampleLearning/Example.java] is not available
Description The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.

>Solution :
Your urlPattern is /Example, but in your HTML form, you are using Example.java which does not map to /Example. Change your HTML form action to /Example and it should work.
