Thanks for you reply, it strikes me as a bit odd I need to parse the postdata myself, I was expecting the next servlet in the chain would read the postdata by the getInputStream() (of my wrapper) and parse it into a parameter map but this is not happening. I'll try it the way you suggested. Marco

Maybe the server could call some low-level methods in the implementation of the HttpServletRequest for request parsing. I suggest you could use the network monitor tool to log the request block. If you really want to do it in the server itself, maybe a third pary request parser is needed,such as commons-fileupload. I suppose the steps below could fulfill your requirements: 1. First using your current wrapper request to log the data 2. Pass your wrapper request to the commons-fileupload. maybe use new ServletFileUpload() .parse(yourwrapperRequest) 3. For the method parse above returns a list object, you need to write another wrapper request, and overwrite some method in it (such as getParameter) to make your application works as usual
