B,
jsp's are evaluated on the server side before the page goes to the client.
The form input in the HTML is only valid at the client side. You need to
use the request.getParameter() to process the response from the form
submittal.

Subject: getParameter()
When I use the request.getParameter("field1") from within the JSP where
field1
is defined as an input form control, it always returns only a null value.
Can
someone tell me why and what I am doing wrong?
For eg: if the lets say the JSP contains this.
<form name="form1">
<input type="text" name="field1" value="One">
</form>
<%=request.getParameter("field1")%>
-----------
The last line is always null.
Thanks for any response.
Bala.
