The getName() method is used to retrieve the original file name passed from the browser for a file item. It has nothing to do with the value of either a file field or a regular form field. To get the value of a form field, you need to use getString() instead of getName() (or you can use get() if you want a raw byte array). -- Martin Cooper > > > > When I use the getFieldName method and print the result to the System I do > see the form field names and they do match the values I am using in the if > statements.
