Thanks to Robert and Pete for your help. Guess I should get with the
times...

You could try using getParameterValues. This would give you an array of
Strings for all the values of B.
B:<%String b[] = request.getParameterValues("b");
for(int i=0;i<b.length;i++)
out.print(b[i]);%>
I'm not saying this would work definatly cause I'm using Tomcat without
Apache
and Linux, but it works on my system.
