Re: [xwiki-devs] $request.getParameter()

No. even $request.<name of the field> does not work! Any other suggestions? Thanks On 5/1/08, Kamna Jain <[email protected]> wrote:

Hello All,

I have come across this many times and am not sure what I am doing wrong here. I have a simple HTML form on a page and there is one <select> type input.

If I try to get the selected value of this field on the same page, using #set($something = $request.getParameter("name of the filed")) , it does not do anything

but if I do the same in a .vm file, it gets the value fine. What am I doign wrong, in the process of getting the value on the same page using velocity.

Thanks
