easily :

if you have named your servlet as myServlet,then you can call it from a link like this:
<a href="myServlet">Call myServlet</a>
that's it!!!!!!!!!! recall you name a servlet in web.xml file !

Just correcting some code wolve634's answer for me is more efficient than this. I just want to fix this code ^_^ Just keep everything organize and put the TAGS in the rigth position. Html tags is position sensitive ^_^

Code:

<body> <form name = "Test" action="LoginServlet" method="post"> <script type="text/javascript"> function update(){ Test.submit();} </script> <a href="javascript:update()" >view</a> </form>

<a href="#" onclick="javascript:document.forms[0].submit();return false;">updateTeam</a>
