I am redirecting to a new page and passing the variables in the redirect. How can I capture it in the survey.jsp page?

response.sendRedirect("survey.jsp"+"?firstName="+firstName+"&lastName="+lastName+"&emailAddress="+emailAddress);

Thanks

"AdamSmith Smith",

There aren't many rules that you need to worry about here on the Ranch, but one that we take very seriously regards the use of proper names. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it.

In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Thanks!

Thanks for adjusting your display name.

Regardless of how your target page is arrived at -- a redirect, typing directly into the browser, a link on a page -- you would obtain the values of the request parameters with one of the getParameter family of methods on the request object.

Thanks

I have a response.sendRedirect that I append some values. Can I do a POST instead of the default GET.

response.sendRedirect("survey.jsp"+"?firstName="+firstName+"&lastName="+lastName+"&emailAddress="+emailAddress+"&didHeLie="+0);

Secondly, I still cannot get the variables on the survey.jsp using the response.getParameter(firstName);
What am I doing wrong?

Any help would be appreciated.

A redirect will always result in a GET.

Employ basic debugging techniques. First, is the URL in the address bar after the redirect well-formed?

In the page that you redirect to try getting the parameters from the request, not the response.

Never mind my greenhorn friends. After starting tomcat things looked much better.
