a href command not working
out.println("<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id=" + id +">Delete</A></TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=UpdateServlet?id=" + id +">Update</A></TD>");
I have a servlet, there is a textbox and a submit button. when a user enters a name his information is displayed in the table and right beside the information displayed in the table i should have a url named delete and update. if a user clicks delete it deletes the name from the database. if he clicks on update then user wil be able to enter information.
My servlet searchservlet page does not display the update and delte url. What am i doing wrong?

I think its better for both of us if you could show to us your servlet.
[nobr]allrite. here is the original code. after hour of debugging i am able to display my url. now my problem is when i click on delete then my deleteservlet comes in action but for some reason its not deleting the information of the user, it displays the else statement error msg that Error in details.
here is my Searchservlet

Thanks[/nobr]
it appears to throw exception and since you make that throws silent, you don't get any exception.} catch (Exception e) {}
no its notcatch (SQLException e) {System.out.println(e.toString());}no exception
catch (Exception e) {System.out.println(e.toString());}
try print out your sql before you execute it.
System.out.println(sql);
rowAffected = stm.executeUpdate(sql);
& its better to print exception message than call to string method.
} catch (SQLException sqlEx) {
System.out.println(sqlEx.getMessage());
} catch ...
another guess...
String sql = "SELECT FirstName, LastName, UserName, Password" +
" FROM USERS.posts" +
" WHERE FirstName LIKE '%" + fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'" +
" OR LastName LIKE '%" +fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'";
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);
while (rs.next()) {
String id = rs.getString(1);
your id actully hold first name value... but when you execute the delete, it should throw sqlexception since your sql sintax become incorrect...
No Exceptions nothing. The program is fine except it does not delete the data when i click on the delete url beside the information table which is displayed. one thing i noticed is when i click on delete this is the url in my browser.
http://localhost:8080/chapter4/DeleteServlet?id=
as you can see it is suppose to be like
http://localhost:8080/chapter4/DeleteServlet?id=2
or 1 or 3 depending on the id number assigned to the user which is a primary key as i have shown earlier.
Either my String id = rs.getString(1); is not correct. I am still stuggling thanks for the effor though.
hmmm good point. i knew something was wrong but i have posts_id as a primary key and then firstName, lastName and password. i thought if i do rs.getString(1) then my Id in the database will get executed.
How can i change my statement so it knows to delete the id which is assigned to a user.
Secondly i thought to change the whole syntax like i would like to get rid of ID and replacing it with firstName, still the same thing.
> Either my String id = rs.getString(1); is not correct. I am still stuggling > thanks for the effor though.
yes.. read my previous reply. what you store in id variable is first name not post id. and from your browser url result, i think you work with empty string data in first name.
ok i did this
while (rs.next()) {
String firstname = rs.getString(1);
out.println("<TR>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(1)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(2)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(3)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(4)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?firstname= " + firstname + ">Delete</A></TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=UpdateServlet?firstname= " +firstname + ">Update</A></TD>");
out.println("</TR>");
}
and this in my deleteServlet
try {
String firstname = request.getParameter("firstname");
String sql = "DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE FirstName=" + firstname;
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sample");
Statement s = con.createStatement();
recordAffected = s.executeUpdate(sql);
s.close();
con.close();
}
still it does not make any difference
just repair your sql query that display search result to this:
// add post_id
String sql = "SELECT post_id, FirstName, LastName, UserName, Password" +
" FROM USERS.posts" +
" WHERE FirstName LIKE '%" + fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'" +
" OR LastName LIKE '%" +fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'";
your response writing seems ok, since it only print from column 2 (now become first name).
give a try!
FirstName is a string you need to put it like this
try {
String firstname = request.getParameter("firstname");
String sql = "DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE FirstName='" + firstname +"'";
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sample");
Statement s = con.createStatement();
recordAffected = s.executeUpdate(sql);
s.close();
con.close();
}
your solution can work when your first name are unique. even if your first name data are unique, i recommend you to use post_id as primary key. in real world, we will meet many person with same first name.
in case your first name are unique. you should aware that first name data type is string/varchar not integer. you can adding quote in beginning and end of that varchar, but i recommend you to use PreparedStatement.

I know you're just beginning but 3 key things...
1. Use PreparedStatements EVERYWHERE, to avert [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_Injection]SQL-Injection[/url]
What happens to your website if I enter my name as "t' or 1=1 or 't" and then delete it?
2. HTML encode all display fields
What happens to your site if I enter my name as "<FRAME><APPLET= ....
3. URL encode all paramaters (and not the whole URL string).
What happens if I enter my name as "J&J Jimbo Jay Billy Bob" (I mean, apart from obviously leaving a trail of empty Bourbon & Cola cans).

ok thanks shadinata. it worked. how stupid of me ah... bad. anyways thanks.
Yes i am using post_id thing. but now still the record is not deleting.
String sql = "SELECT post_id, FirstName, LastName, UserName, Password" +
" FROM USERS.posts" +
" WHERE FirstName LIKE '%" + fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'" +
" OR LastName LIKE '%" +fixSqlFieldValue(keyword) + "%'";
System.out.println(sql);
ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery(sql);
while (rs.next()) {
String id = rs.getString(1);
out.println("<TR>");
....
and this is my deleteservlet
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,IOException {
int recordAffected = 0;
try {
String id = request.getParameter("id");
String sql = "DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id =" + id ;
// String sql = "DELETE FROM Users WHERE Id=" + id;
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sample");
Statement s = con.createStatement();
System.out.println(sql);
recordAffected = s.executeUpdate(sql);
s.close();
con.close();
}
catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
catch (Exception e) {
}
still my else statement executes.
ok corltekk i will look into it. Thanks
try print your sql variable to trace.
String id = request.getParameter("id");
String sql = "DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id =" + id ;
System.out.println(sql);
my guess is you passing that id value not correctly. please post your response code when printing search result.
(Edit) oh... sorry, you did it. what your sql value when you print it.
Message was edited by:
j_shadinata
this is my stack trace
DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id =
Syntax error: Encountered "<EOF>" at line 1, column 39.
still the id in my URL is empty. if i try the other way
String sql = "DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id = '" + id + "'";
still no success but here is the stack trace if i use the above sql statement
DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id = ''
Comparisons between 'INTEGER' and 'CHAR' are not supported.
what result you get from this statment?
System.out.println(sql);
please post your new code that render result set to html table.
while (rs.next()) {
String firstname = rs.getString(1);
out.println("<TR>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(1)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(2)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(3)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(4)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?firstname= " + firstname + ">Delete</A></TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=UpdateServlet?firstname= " +firstname + ">Update</A></TD>");
out.println("</TR>");
}
DELETE FROM USERS.posts WHERE post_id =
Syntax error: Encountered "<EOF>" at line 1, column 39.
line 1 tells, when you call id = getParameter("id") return empty string.
line 2 is sql exception message means your sql syntax is wrong.
what url you see at your browser? http://localhost.../DeleteServlet?id=2?
no this is what i see. http://localhost:8080/chapter4/DeleteServlet?id=something is wrong with the id but i dont see anything wrong in the sql statement?
i think your delete servlet is okay. the problem may cause from search servlet.
please post your new code that render result set to html table.
while (rs.next()) {
String firstname = rs.getString(1);
out.println("<TR>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(1)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(2)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(3)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD>" + encodeHtmlTag(rs.getString(4)) + "</TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?firstname= " + firstname + ">Delete</A></TD>");
out.println("<TD><A HREF=UpdateServlet?firstname= " +firstname + ">Update</A></TD>");
out.println("</TR>");
}
in previous code you supply a space character before first name value. so post your current code. i think you doing same mistake.

wow.. if this qualifies as "New To Java" then i think im in trouble.. just wondering.. how long have you been working with java?
lol one year. well actually servlet forums are way too slow. so if i have any problems in servlets or jsp i do post in new to java since alot of people do look in these forums.
<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id= 2>Delete</A></TD><TD><A HREF=UpdateServlet?id= 2>Update</A></TD>that is the problem! since it is a space like my posts before.Message was edited by: j_shadinata
exatcly but i dont see anything wrong with my code or any space then why html is generating this space?
find the difference:
"<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id= " + id + ">Delete</A></TD>"
"<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id=" + id + ">Delete</A></TD>"
find the difference? sorry i did'nt get you.
// your wrong code
"<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id= " + id + ">Delete</A></TD>"
// should be like this
"<TD><A HREF=DeleteServlet?id=" + id + ">Delete</A></TD>"
shadinata can i give you a big kiss ? ;--) It worked... Yayyy... Thanks alot. but why ? i mean this is ridiculous? it does not make any sense. looks to me like the compiler is very picky.

Errr no. Nothing to do with the compiler.
The program is printing exactly what you told it to. The part in the quotes. You had a space in the quotes. It was printed.
cotton hey. but i tried everything. i understand what shadinta was talking about. i did exatcly what he said. space + no space. i tried different senarios but was not successful. err. so while updating or deleting a record from a database we had to be careful about the spaces.
That sucks i mean i was stuck for one whole day lol thanks to shadinta for helping me out, cannot believe it was a space problem. errr
Any other ideas or any other suggestions while doing servlet programming? i have'nt gone to jsp yet but when i do i will do all my html programming in jsp. i think its better to write all the html commands in jsp.

thanks. i learned alot from these forums and thanks for helping. i am trying to get used to of using PreparedStatement. Let me see if i will be able to achieve it.

hehe thanks alot man. for helping me out. i really appreciate it. hope to give this favor back to you some day ..
email me if you want me to complete any kind of java program or help you in projects(i doubt if you need any help). i am willing to spend time on it.

Wonderful. I have already added that SDn share to my favorites list. Hope some people can write more good articles like this one from which we can take advantage and can understand it properly.
