Your error checking's not returning any failures. At a basic, you can change this block of code


try {
while (rs.next()) {
userId = rs.getString("user_id");
fname = rs.getString("first_name");
lname = rs.getString("last_name");
address = rs.getString("add1");

Contacts contact = new Contacts(); //Create Class object
contact.setDetails(userId,fname,lname,address); //Set details into object
contacts.add(contact); //Place object into list
} rs.close();
} catch(SQLException ex) {ex.toString();}

to

try {
while (rs.next()) {
userId = rs.getString("user_id");
fname = rs.getString("first_name");
lname = rs.getString("last_name");
address = rs.getString("add1");

Contacts contact = new Contacts(); //Create Class object
contact.setDetails(userId,fname,lname,address); //Set details into object
contacts.add(contact); //Place object into list
} rs.close();
} catch(SQLException ex) {
System.err.println("**** sql exception begin ****");
ex.printStackTrace(System.err);
}


Then take a look at wherever your system.err is pointing to.

Thanks chazzy. I am in need of some more advice if you dont mind. Since my app is being developed with ajax, building pages using dom is way too long, so instead I have a servlet request which basically spits out the required html and then I use innerHTML to insert to content into to page. With dynamic content I use XML/DOM to build the tables/divs and then insert them into the html. The servlet processes both the html/xml GET requests. Now, does this sound like a good way of doing things ?
