Try this from the page containing the form:
First you should set the DisplayType as a hidden field, although it might
work in the action value:
<input type="hidden" name="DisplayType" value="B">
You can now reference the form's field values with the
request.getParameter() method in the destination page.
String displayType = request.getParameter("DisplayType");
If you don't know what the field names are that were passed to you, try
this:
Enumeration paramNames = request.getParameterNames();
while (paramNames.hasMoreValues() )
{
String theName = (String)paramNames.nextElement();
String theValue = request.getParameter(theName);
out.println(theName + " = " + theValue + "<BR>");
}
out.flush();
A very good reference book is Java Servlet Programming by Jason Hunter from
O'Reilly.

Subject: Passing paramaters in the form "post" event
Hi all,
If I have my form post defined as <form method="POST"
action="/nynav/jsp/uacctlst.jsp?DisplayType=B" etc...>
How do I retrieve "DisplayType" in uacctlst.jsp? Also, how do I retrieve
any
of the form values posted? I'm pretty new at this and appreciate any help
offered.
Thank in advance.
Jeff
