Why not? Because I already did it for you. :-) My class support
auto-type conversions as well as default values if the parameter wasn't
specified or the type conversion failed. It's from Chapter 13 of my
book "Java Servlet Programming".
See http://www.servlets.com/resources/com.oreilly.servlet/.
Class is called ParameterParser. Other goodies there too.
