Use the rundata.getParameters().get* methods. Of course, you need to
know the form parameters' names.

Yes, that's what I was suggesting. There might be another way, but I
wouldn't know it :-)
The code might look something like this:
HashMap map = new HashMap();
map.put("param1", rundata.getParameters().getString("param1"));
map.put("param2", rundata.getParameters().getString("param2"));
ForwardService fs =
(ForwardService)ServiceUtil.getServiceByName(ForwardService.SERVICE_NAME
);
fs.forwardDynamic(rundata, "my_foward", map);
Oh yes, I almost forgot: the code needs to be executed by a Turbine
action, otherwise the forward won't work (it's too late in an action
executed by Jetspeed), so you have to explicitly call the action by
adding something like this to your form:
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="portlets.MySuperCoolAction">
