I am not sure what you are saying here, but getParameter() can be called
more than once for the same parameter and it will always return you the
value. Although, if you do call getParameter() then you can not read the
parameters in the InputStream obtained from the getInputStream() method.

How are you calling getParameter() in the *simple class*. If I understand
correctly, this method call should be in the servlet.
Can you post the relevant section of the code where you are getting the
exception.

I think the user-agent (a simple class using URLConnection or a web browser
or .. ) does not matter for the usage of this method as long as the
user-agent is following the HTTP protocol.
