I have the following UGLY bit of code in a View Helper that I use to get
the table id and page number from the request, which I use for external
paging. (I get the page context via some internal tag libraries that
identify a bean as "Page Context Aware").
 
    public Collection getPartialSoftwareList() {
 
        int startPage;
        String page;
 
        ServletRequest request = pageContext.getRequest();
        Map paramMap = request.getParameterMap();
        for (Iterator it = paramMap.entrySet().iterator();
it.hasNext();) {
            Map.Entry pairs = (Map.Entry) it.next();
            String key = (String) pairs.getKey();
            if (key.substring(0,2).equals("d-")) {
                String[] pageArray = (String[]) pairs.getValue();
                page = pageArray[0];
                break;
            }
        }
 
        try {
            startPage = Integer.parseInt(page);
        } catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
            startPage = 1;
        }
 
        return softwareService.getPartialSoftwareList(startPage, 30);
 
    }
 
Is there a better, cleaner way to get the table id and page number from
the request?
