From: vsolve apache <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: mod_jserv/5361: ServletRequest.getParameterValues() method does not return multiple values Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 05:29:56 -0800 (PST) Hi, In your Html file use hidden type of inputs to pass the values to server.As well as you should use different names in 'name' parameter(eg. movieid) in checkbox type inputs. And in your servlet program use getParameterNames() function to get the all the names which are used in input name of your html file.(No need to use getReader() function). getParameterNames() values should be assigned to Enumeration type variable.This consists of all values along with names. To get the values alone use getParameterValues("xxx") within loop. Here the sample html and servlet programs for you. Its working fine. sample.html ---------------- <html><head><title>Sample</title></head> <body> <form action=/example/sample method=POST> <input type=hidden name=sample value=sample> <BR>Java<input type=checkbox name=ide value=Java> <BR>JavaApplets<input type=checkbox name=ide1 value=JavaApplets> <BR>JaveServlets<input type=checkbox name=ide2 value=JavaServlets> <BR><BR><input type=submit><input type=reset> </form> </body></html> ***************************** sample.java --------------- import java.io.*; import javax.servlet.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; import java.util.*; public class sample extends HttpServlet { public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException { //set the "content type" header of the response res.setContentType("text/html"); //Get the response's PrintWriter to return text to the client. PrintWriter toClient = res.getWriter(); Enumeration values = req.getParameterNames(); while(values.hasMoreElements()) { String name = (String)values.nextElement(); String value = req.getParameterValues(name)[0]; if(name.compareTo("submit") != 0) { toClient.println("<p>"+name+": "+value); } } // Close the writer; the response is done. toClient.close(); } } All the best and Njoy with servlets. regards, vsolve_apache visolve dot com. >Number: 5361 >Category: mod_jserv >Synopsis: ServletRequest.getParameterValues() method does not return multiple values >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: medium >Responsible: jserv >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: apache >Arrival-Date: Wed Nov 24 11:10:01 PST 1999 >Last-Modified: >Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Organization: apache >Release: Apache=apache-1.3.6-7;JServ=ApacheJServ-1.1-b2_RH6X >Environment: OS: Red Hat 6.0 Java: JDK 1.2 >Description: When a browser sends a request like the following one, which is captured using getReader() method. movieid=430&movieid=752&movieid=25&movieid=437&movieid=436&movieid=429&movieid=465&movieid=432&movieid=107&movieid=273&link=1.117.118.120 When I called ServletRequest.getParameterValues("movieid"), I an array with only one value 430. I do not get all the values into the array. I know when I call ServletRequest.getParameterValue("movieid"), I get one value. But the ServletRequest.getParameterValues, note the s at the end, should give me all the values packaged into the array. Request: I am developing a serious Web site.
