http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11324 forward() doesnt add parameters to query string Summary: forward() doesnt add parameters to query string Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.0.4 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Servlet & JSP API AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In Tomcat 331 I could call forward("fred.dyn?id=222") from a servlet that had already been called with a set of parameters say name=fred&location=uk and in the forwarded servlet (fred.dyn) I could get query string and it would contain: id=222&name=fred&location=uk in tomcat 404 (I havent tried 4.1) the query string only contains the id=222. Now I realise the spec if loose in this area and it doesnt say that the query string should be updated - why do other containers BEA 6.0/7, WebSphere4, Tomcat3 - I suspect Caucho and Jetty would too (and havent time to test them) - do this and TC4 has taken the decision not to ? Surely this means that there could be servlets out there that will not work in TC 4 if they process the query string and dont use getParameter(). I have an example web app if reqd. james -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
