Firstly, servlets are not deployed in Browsers, they are deployed on server and accessed through browsers.

Secondly: what you can do is, just copy paste the URL from eclipse browser to mozilla or chrome to access your servlet. All that you have to make sure is that the tomcat server configured in your eclipse and on which application containing this servlet is deployed, is up and running.

If you want to access this without eclipse tomcat, goto the local tomcat installation, you should have a deploy folder there, create a war file of your webapplication and copy it to the deploy folder and start te tomcat server.

Just copy the url from eclipse browser and paste on url bar of which browser you need. There is no separate deploy for each browser. Another thing you can change your eclipse default browser.If you changed, project will start in browser you selected instead of eclipse browser.

You deploy application in WebServer (Tomcat in your case) not in browsers.

In eclipse, add your application in tomcat server (in servers view), start the server and open a browser of your choice.

Then put in url http://localhost:8080/NameOfYourServlet

You don't deploy to a browser. You deploy to a server. Just deploy to server and start the server the usual way (as you did in Eclipse). Then, just enter the servlet's URL in the address bar of the webbrowser of your choice yourself. It can be exactly the same URL as you see in Eclipse browser's address bar. If necessary, bookmark this URL in your favourite webbrowser so that you don't need to copypaste/enter it yourself everytime.
