Oh BTW:
You can't do this in Java:
if (req.getParameter("radio1") == "y") {
out.println("Yes");
}
else {
out.println("No");
}
Because == is designed to test equality, and *not* likeness
(similarity). That means that, to be ==, 2 references have to refer to
exactly the same object. It's no good saying that 2 strings are
exactly the same, they're not in Java - they're 2 different strings.
What you should be doing is this:
String radio=req.getParameter("radio1");
if(radio!=null && radio.equals("y") )
{
/etc....
This is kinda basic Java. The whole object thing (as a Perley you
don't have to think about that sort of thing much - which rather
ironically allways gets me into trouble in Perl!).
