title: Information flow when redirecting from HTML to Servlet
body: <p>I have a question regarding the information flow of a simple link.
  Let's say I have an HTML that does this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="servlet"&gt;Go to Servlet&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And in that servlet, I have a <code>doGet</code>, <code>doPost</code>, and a lot of other methods. Where does the information go to at first? Which block will be the first to kick in?</p>
  
  <p>I know servlets shouldn't have all these methods and responsibilities, it's just a piece of code from a book (Professional java for web applications) that will introduce JSPs later on.</p>
