You have to use
} if (request.getParameter("loc".equals("clipArtManager")) {
When you use ==, you are comparing objects, and in your case, they are not the
same. What you want to use is equals(), which just compares the content.

Please respond
to jrun-talk
I am an ASP programmer moving to JSP. I am trying to run my first script and
capture a Querystring however it seem so dificult in JSP.
This is my code:
<%
} if (request.getParameter("loc") == "clipArtManager") {
%>
Clip Art
<%
} else {
%>
No Go
<%
}
%>
It is always returning No go. Why is this?
My other problem is that when I print out
request.getParameter("loc") I het 500 Null printed on the screen, with no
other data shown.
What is happening?
Please ANY help would be much appreciated.
