I'll try this again, but I'm 99% sure if I only have one parameter value, trying to cast it to an array fails (as it's simply a String). But maybe I screwed up my testing yesterday, so I'll give it another spin this morning.
And maybe I'll punt getParameterMap() altogether, and look at using getParameterNames(), etc. to do the same thing. Thanks.
