request.getParameter(), works on get, not on post
With an input form
<form method="get"
action="/repository/ckDoc"
name="form"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="reposo">Archive number:</label>
<input name="reposno"
id="reposno"
type="text"
size="9"
maxlength="8" value="123456">
in ckDoc.java I have
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
HttpSession session = request.getSession(); //
//String s = request.getQueryString();
String t = request.getParameter("reposno");
System.err.println("Ano is " + t);
which nicely prints out the Archive number value.
When I change the get to a post,
getParameter returns null, intimating that there is no such form item.
I can access the data (though very messily) using the fileUpload object,
but it seems so simple using getParameter();
Can anyone suggest why it won't work with the post please?

request.getParameter doesn't work with mutipart forms.
You will need to check the documentation for the upload library you are
using.
If you don't have one yet, see:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload
