I dont want to use Java script i wan to write some code in my Servlet1 only
Can you please tell me if it is possible
Where does a servlet run? On the client or on the server. Once you answer that question you will know whether or not you can perform client side validation in a servlet.
Also, your application should never rely on any kind of operations on the client side. They may have the needed resources disabled, or they may be spoofing the results, whatever, you don't know. It should always, always, be checked again on the server side. You can have client side validation, but it should only be used for convenience (i.e. giving the user the opportunity to correct an entry before it is sent to the server), and should never be relied upon by the server.
