Get parameter from a parameter...

[Pichdude]

Hi,

Is there anyone who can help me with the following problem? I want to collect a value on a parameter that is being posted from a website.

The parameter looks like this on the webpage (Base64 encoded):
Parameter="VEFSR0VUPXdlYi5qc3AmVkFMVUU9MTIzNDU2Nzg5"

I collect the whole parameter in a common way in my java class, request.getParameter("Parameter"), and Base64 decodes it and saves it to a string. The string now contains: TARGET=web.jsp&VALUE=123456789

Now to the problem, I only want to collect the value in the string that is after VALUE= (i.e. 123456789). Is that possible?

Best regards

Sure.

String myFirstParameter="TARGET=web.jsp&VALUE=123456789";
String myLastParameter = myFirstParameter.substring(myFirstParameter.lastIndexOf("=")+1);

Cheers,
Dian
