Subject: Interpreting Select Options
Help!,
The following excerpt, produces a select list with three options. How can I
read these options from a Java Servlet?
<select name="colours" size=10>
<option value="c1">Yellow
<option value="c2">Blue
<option value="c3">Red
Using the get method produces
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/colourFile?&colours=c3
colourFile is the called servlet.
This leads me onto another question:
I'm using apache's tomcat as my servlet engine, and examples as the default
project how do you create a new project? I apologise if this is beginners
stuff.
