Hi to all!!

When i get user input data from a form by using :

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws
ServletException, java.io.IOException
{
    ...

   ServletOutputStream out = res.getOutputStream();

   Hashtable postedData =
HttpUtils.parsePostData(req.getContentLength(),req.getInputStream());

   String sn = (String) postedData.get("SN");

   out.print(SN);

    ....
}

I get the error

        java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Object

when I submit the data.

The "SN" is the name of a text-box that allows user input, in a HTML Form.

I have confirm that the value associated with the key "SN" is a String, by
doing :

...
   Object sn =  postedData.get("SN");

   out.print( sn.getClass().getName().);

...

I don't see were the problem is since the method "get" from Hastable returns
an Object, and String is a subclass of Object.
Maybe it as something to do with the classloader of the servlet?

Does anyone know whats's the problem?

Tanks in advance,

        RJCampos.
