String original = request.getParameter("original");
original = "some_new_value";

// send your new value to the servlet ....


Is this what you mean ?

Hi,


I need to forward my request to another servlet.

The way you described will modify parameter value?

ActionType is my parameter...say it contains string value new...i want to update it to error string value.

pretty new to this ...hope i explained you clearly..

String ActionType = request.getParameter("ActionType");
// Looking for something where I can update my parameter
//ActionType...Basically I want to set to new value error.
RequestDispatcher rd =
request.getRequestDispatcher(
"/servlet/exampleServlet");
rd.forward(request,response)

Thank You.

Well you asked how to modify a request parameter ... which is just a String ...

String mynewparam = "hello";
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("/servlet/exampleServlet?myparam=" +mynewparam);
rd.forward(request,response);

... would work ...
