request.getParameter() uses request.getInputStream() to do it's job. First,
it reads the initial line of text and parses it for the URL that was used to
request the page, which also contains the query arguments which are parsed
and put into the table of Request Parameters. Then, if the Request Method
was POST, the body of the message is parsed to add the form parameters to
the Request Parameter Table.
