JSP & is it a seperator

Okay Im using request.getParameter to retrieve a value from an actual address entered in at the top of the screen.

I was just wondering if Ive got this big long string with
tryryrury&cmd=0

would
req.getParameter("cmd")

return a string saying "0"?

Thats sounds about right.......

Do you have a choice of whether or not you have to use JSP?

You can do stuff like this as well

Map<String,String[]> parameters = req.getParameterMap();
for(String key: req.keySet()) 
{      
       System.out.println("KEY: "+key+" - VALUE: "+parameters.get(key)[0]);
}

Which would list all parameters and their values, handy for checking multiple parameters.

Nope gotta use jsp.

dont forget that

${param.nameofparameter} also works well
