Hi,

I have a certain doubt regarding get and post method.

Suppose I have a form

<form action="abc.jsp?var=apply&var2=get" method="post">

will the server be able to get me the parameters both from form post
as well as of the query string in the request object.

thanks in advance

Yes, but not in the same way. "Parameters" is a very general term and
it includes both form parameters and those in the query string. You'll
also need to implement both the doPost() and doGet() methods.

If, as in the example you quote, then it's a POST with parameters
embedded in the URL rather than supplied by <form> <input> elements,
then yes it's just like retrieving them from a GET.
