getting the button from a Form

[Marc Lerma]

hello everyone, 

In my application, I need to get the id of a form button  when managing a POST 
call on a given resource.

this is my form i'm posting to my resource:

form name=login method=post action=/iwf-rest-client/login
Name:br
input type=text name=iwf.user_name cols=55 rows=10/textareabr
Password:br
input type=text name=iwf.user_password size=55 value=

input type=button name=submitButton value=Submit 
onclick=document.forms['login'].submit()

/form

and I'm getting it as follows:

@Post 
public Representation sendForm(Representation entity) {


Form form = new Form(entity);   

//get the names of the form fields
Set String names = form.getNames();
   
...
}

I'm being able to get all the field names but the button one, and I definitely 
need it. is there any means by which I can get the button name 
('submitButton')???


thanks in advance!

The onclick handler here is why you aren't getting the  
submitButton=Submit value in the posted representation.  Use

input type=submit name=submitButton value=Submit

instead.
