Problem while receiving parameters..

[Chak Terlapu]

Hi,
When I am trying to call servlet B from servlet A the parameters are not getting passed and null value is returned.
servlet main.java: displays a table and adds checkbox to each row:

while(rs.next())
         {
            out.println("<TR>");
            out.println("<TD align=center><input type=checkbox name=icheck["+(i++)+"]></TD>");
            out.println("<TD align=center>" + rs.getString("HOLIDAY_CODE") + "</TD>");
            out.println("<TD align=center>" + rs.getString("HOLIDAY_DESCR") + "</TD>");
            out.println("<TD align=center>" + rs.getString("HOLIDAY_DATE") + "</TD>");
            out.println("<TD align=center>" + rs.getString("LAST_CHANGE_USERID") + "</TD>");
            out.println("<TD align=center>" + rs.getString("LAST_CHANGE_TMSTMP") + "</TD>");
            out.println("</TR>");
            row_id[j] = rs.getString("rowid");
            j++;
         }             
 out.println("<input type=hidden name=abcd value="+i+">");  
     out.println("<TABLE><TR>");
out.println("<Form method=\"post\"  action=\"http://rupd1b42:8159/servlet/delete1.class\"><TH>");
      out.println("<INPUT type=\"submit\" value=\"Delete\">");
      out.println("</TH></Form>");
      out.println("</TR></TABLE>");        

if i just call action like above null values are returned for value of i but if use as below then value is passed:
out.println("<Form method=\"post\" action=\"http://rupd1b42:8159/servlet/delete1.class?abcd=59\"><TH>");
but still the values of check boxes are "null". I am trying to receive parameters as follows:

   //receiving parameters
      int num1 = 0;
      String kaly = req.getParameter("abcd");
      cont.log("value of num: "+kaly);
      num1 = Integer.parseInt(kaly);
      for(int i=0; i< num1; i++)
      {
         String ch = req.getParameter("icheck"+i);
         cont.log("check: " +ch);
      }                          

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chak

Your Form tag pair has to completely enclose the checkboxes. It looks to me like it is separate, so it should be no surprise that the checkbox information is not transmitted.
