Hello everybody!
I would like to send a request to a servlet using an applet instead of an
HTML form and the POST method.
I mean...I want obtain the same effect of sending the following form using
an applet:
<FORM NAME="Dati_personali" METHOD=POST >
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Vecchia_Login">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="E_mail" size="25" MAXLENGTH=30>
...
</FORM>
I would like to get the value of the two INPUT fields and send them to the
servlet with an applet (I could modify them before sending them to the
servlet, for example I could crypt them in the applet).
The servlet shouldn't know I am sending the parameters through an applet
instead of an HTML form: in fact in this case I could get the value of these
parameters using always the getParameter() method.
I thought to put the parameters in a Java class and send them using object
serialization but in this case in the code of the servlet I should support
object serialization and use readObject() method instead of getParameter():
so I should write two different method to read parameters, the first one to
read the parameters sent with an HTML form and the second one to read those
that are sent with the applet and object serialization.
Anyway I would like to write ONLY one method to read all the parameters I
want to send: it doesn't matter if they are sent with an HTML form an
applet, because the servlet shouldn't recognize the way they are sent.
A question again: how can I obtain the same effect using the GET method
instead of the POST method?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Luca
