Form submit from a JSP page

["Nair, Rajendran" <rn...@evolve.com>]

Hi

I wrote a simple JSP  page with a form in it.  This form had a couple of
text elements and a submit button and I want the submit from this form to be
handled by a servlet.  However, when I set the method of the form to "POST",
my servlet does not get the parameters (neither the text elements nor the
submit button), whereas if the method is "GET", these parameters come
through fine.

Is there anything special I must do to process a POST request from a JSP?
Or am I missing something very obvious?

I have Apache 1.3.12/Tomcat 3.1 on a Windows98 machine.

I got the same problem under Mandrake 7.
I don't know if it's coming from apache 1.3.12 or from tomcat 3.1
There is a bug report that seems to adress this (n� 128).
Has anyone a solution to fix it ?
