I believe that you must submit the form first, then you can use
getParameter(). JSP are processed on the server-side.

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.
