Hi sidaty,
try this:
doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)....{
.....
String form_text_one, form_text_two;
try{
// by indexing the array of strings ( ....[0] ) and
// calling the .trim() method you will generate a
// NullPointerException if the form did not contain
// a field by the name given.
// This is definitely an exceptional situation and is completely
// within in your control to prevent.
form_text_one =
req.getParameterValues("form_text_one_name")[0].trim();
form_text_two =
req.getParameterValues("form_text_two_name")[0].trim();
// for informational purposes only. remove when done.
//System.out.println(form_text_one);
//System.out.println(form_text_two);
}catch(NullPointerException npe){
//System.err.println("This is where the error is going on.");
//System.err.println("Error: create_proposal.doPost() -
NullPointerException");
// npe.printStackTrace(res.getWriter());
res.sendRedirect("/error_mesg.html");
return;
} // this should take care of any null values (missing fields).
....
}
Good luck!,
