Hi, thanks for ur reply. I already know how to write basic servlet, just
that I am not sure when the tomcat redirect the request of .xml file to
the servlet, which method inside the servlet gets to handle it? doGet or
doPost? I even tried service() but can't do it. Also how can I get the
requested file names?

Thanks in advance

Btw.. I agree that it is a good book I have it here :)

The sun site has a tutorial. Search www.javasoft.com.

O'Reilly's Java Servlet Programming is a good book on Java 
servlets.
