hi all I have a LoginServlet that has the functionality to log in a user however I have a jsp page with the styling I'd to use. I am unsure how I can use the functionality from my LoginServlet in my login.jsp
here is the entirety of my code for the LoginServlet, I am aware I have coded to display a page but I need to use this jsp page to display. This is a uni assignment I have been given and it's part of the requirement that we use JSP for display.

super();
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
private void sendLoginForm(HttpServletResponse response,
boolean withErrorMessage)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<HTML>");
out.println("<HEAD>");
out.println("<TITLE>Login</TITLE>");

I'd like the login.jsp page to call my LoginServlet for the login functions.
