AW: Help! multipart/form-data use GET, not POST

Hello Hiroshi,

this is not a resin problem.  If you specify the enctype
'multipart/form-data' the parameters are send via the 
ServletInputStream. You must access it with 
request.getInputStream(). Handicap with this method is that
you have to parse this stream by your own (or use for example
the oreily-classes cos.jar).
If you do not need the enctype 'multipart/form-data' just leave
it away and you can use the request.getParameter()-method.
Just try it.

Greetings

Thorsten

Betreff: Help! multipart/form-data use GET, not POST


In a routine common HTML form:

<FORM ACTION="/servlet/BlahBlah" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">

input data are sent via GET, not POST. That is very incovenient because
of URL encoding. However, if we explicitly specify the POST method,

<FORM ACTION="/servlet/BlahBlah" METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">

data are not sent from the client and every response.getParameter() is null.

I'd like to hear what do you guess/suspect could be the cause of this
malfunctioning?

I'm using Resin 2.1.12.

Thanks in advane,
