??? Why that? With standard HTML button it's the value field that controls
what's displayed, not the name field.
If you change
<input type="button" name="test" value="bar">
to
<input type="button" name="test" value="foo">
nothing should happen from the servlet's point of view.
If the servlet checks the name, not the value the two buttons should be
identical... No need to recompile.
