Get Variables in URL

[Terwin]

I want to make sure I'm able to pass get variables to a jsp
in a url. Oddly, the following happens:

(referring page)
<a href=&quot;foo.jsp?type=bar&quot;>link</a>

(foo.jsp?type=bar)

<%= request.getParameter(&quot;type&quot %>

The above statement evaluates to null.. Is there something
simple that I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Terwin

This looks correct to me. There could be something else wrong in your code. If you want to post your code, I could look at it a little further.

-gc &quot;I don't look busy because I did it right the first time.&quot;
