Here you will get servlet login and logout example using HttpSession.
There are various ways to maintain session but here I will use HttpSession class.
In this example we have a index.html page where a login form is displayed. When user enters login details and submits the form the request is sent to LoginServlet. If the details are correct then user is redirected to HomeServlet otherwise redirected to index.html.
LogoutServlet invalidates the sessions to logout the user and redirect to index.html.
If anyone tries to access Home page directly without doing login then he/she will be redirected to index.html.
In this example I have hard coded email and password but you can use database to compare login details. For doing successful login the email should be [email protected] and password should be abc.
