sending request to a servlet from remote HTML -

is possible send request java servlet html file not in project?

that is, possible

<form action="http://example.com/myapp/savedetails.do" method="post"> // other fields </form>

from remote html file.

note: trying send html formatted mail, , allow users fill forms through email , submit in email itself..

you don't call java servlet.

a servlet class servlet container uses handle requests.

your http client, browser, serializes form , sends http request whatever specified in form's action attribute. servlet container receives request, uses servlet handle it, , sends http response.

so browser sending request. if specify url server listening , can respond request, response. client has no knowledge servlet handled it.

what think happen if did this

<form action="http://www.google.com" method="post"> // other fields </form>

can not send request google because google isn't in project? specify in action url.
