Subject: checking for null password
Hi,
I have a problem in a servlet which i wrote.
The servlet accepts a username and password from a HTML form.
I am accessing the same using getParameter function in the doGet
function.
String pwsd = request.getParamater("PASSWORD");
To check if the user pressed the submit button without entering the
password,
I tried
if (pswd==null) {//show the login page again with a error message}
The program does not enter this if loop .
(The string pswd is getting assigned a value if i do enter the
password in the
HTML form)
Am i missing something?
Harish
