It is parameter parsing code. It cannot claim the request as malformed (API does not allow it). It can only skip malformed parameters. It sets some error flag that can be examined. FailedRequestFilter is example of a filter that checks that flag. > We are using Tomcat 5.5 and jdk 1.5 (from Sun).

What about jdk? 1.6 or 1.7? 1.6 is more widely tested (many years), but for a new system I would go with 1.7. I heard that Oracle plans to stop provide free updates for 1.6 this summer. So they will be available only as "Java for Business".
