>> 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?
