Subject: Getting part of a string
Hello,
Can someone tell me how to get the following method
of String to work
String(char [], int, int)
basically I have a form with several fields and I am
trying to validate some of the fields.
eg I am getting a value as
String c1plnt = req.getParameterValues("C1PLNT")[0];
basically I just need the first three characters of
the parameter.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
J
