This servlet will show a job to the user through a ComboBox and display the corresponding records of an employee table in tabular structure after choosing the job.
First create a employee table in Oracle and insert some data as below
create table employee(empid varchar(10),empname varchar(10),sal int)
insert into employee values('e001','raj',10000)
insert into employee values('e002','harry',20000)
insert into employee values('e003','sunil',30000)
insert into employee values('e004','pollock',40000)
insert into employee values('e005','jonty',50000)
insert into employee values('e006','kallis',60000)
insert into employee values('e007','richard',70000)
Creation of dsn(database source name)
Start-Control panel- Administrative Tools- Data Sources (ODBC)-go to system dsn tab-click add button-select a driver for which you want to set up data source (for Oracle- Oracle in XE)-select it and click finish-give any name in data source name textbox-then click ok button.
