Here it is...

Hi
You can use URL and URLConnection for this purpose. Just replace the url and query string in this code with yours and it will work. It also reads the output from the URL and displays it on console.
Thanx

///////// T1.java

import java.net.* ;
import java.io.* ;

class T1 {

public static void main ( String[] args ) throws Exception{

String urlStr = "http://localhost:8080/kishori/velu.jsp" ;
String queryStr = "q=hello" ;
URL url = new URL ( urlStr + "?" + queryStr );
URLConnection con = url.openConnection ( ) ;

InputStream in = con.getInputStream() ;

int c ;

while (( c = in.read ( ) ) != -1 )
System.out.print ( (char)c ) ;


}
}
