Re: [uportal-dev] accessing post variables

[Andrew Petro]

Hi Deeþàn, This email looks more like a question about using / developing portlets for use in uPortal, than it looks like a post about developing the uPortal framework itself.  I therefore suggest it would be best to move this discussion to [EMAIL PROTECTED] As far as your question itself: it seems to me that the JSP should be using the portlet tag library to compose the URLs, bind in the portlet request, etc.  It may be best to grab a working example to start from.  For instance, Cris Holdorph's Google Portlet's edit.jsp demonstrates declaring the portlet tag library, defining (binding) the portlet objects, and composing a form that posts to a URL generated using the portlet tag library. <%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %> <%@ taglib prefix="portlet" uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet" %> <portlet:defineObjects/> <form action=""view"/>" method="POST"> <strong>KEY: </strong> <input type="text" name="KEY" value="<c:out value="${KEY}"/>"/><br/> <input type="submit" name="ACTION" value="Save"/>&nbsp; <input type="submit" name="ACTION" value="Cancel"/><br/> </form> Deeþàn Chakravarthÿ wrote: Hello All, I have trouble in accessing post variable sent by a form from the browser inside the Java Portlet code. I had created a simple JSP that has a simple form which uses POST method. JSP file: <%  final String browser_name = (String) request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.forward.request_uri"); %> <form name="input" action="" method="post"> Username_post: <input type="text" name="user_post"> <input type="submit" value="submit_post"> </form> Portlet Code: public class FormPortlet extends GenericPortlet {  public void doView(RenderRequest request,RenderResponse response)  throws PortletException, IOException  {      parseRequestParameters(request);      PortletContext portletcontext = getPortletContext();      PortletRequestDispatcher prd = portletcontext.getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/form.jsp");      prd.include(request,response);  } } How do I access the  value entered in  user_post input box inside the Java code and JSP code? I tried printing all parameters and attributes from the request object, but could not find the value of user_post.
