During the execution of a package listener, I am trying to call a web page with embedded query strings to execute a task in .cfm... The code below is a snippet from the original code to simplify the discover of the error. I have been struggling to get this simple code to work with no luck so far. I am like two days into JSP. Test.jsp Code: <%@page import= " java.net.*, java.io.*" %> Section 1 <!-- THIS SECTION WORKS --><HR> <% URL urlOne = new URL("http://google.com"); Object getcontent = urlOne.getContent(); %> Section 2 <!-- THIS SECTION DOES NOT WORK --> <HR> <!-- ERROR: Unhandled exception type MalformedURLException --> <%! public class PassToWebService { PassToWebService(){ URL urlTwo = new URL("http://google.com/"); Object connection = urlTwo.getContent(); } } %>
