I'm writing a Data Entry Application and I have an HTML form that a user enters 5 fields . I do a "get" to a Servlet that validates the data ( checks database ), if it validates ok, I call another FORM ( JSP ) , This form requires user to enter about 30 fields mostly Textboxes and 3 listboxes. I then do a POST to a Servlet. I want this Servlet to do an Insert to a Table, but when I do a reg.getParameter { i.e. String fname = req.getParameter("firstname"); ] the fname is nulls. I thought req.getParameter would make this data avaliable to the servlet ? Am I missing something here ? I'm new to Servlets & JSP's ( Obviously !) Thanks for help
