Passing Request Parameters

See Also

You can pass request parameters in URL query string format to JSP pages and servlets from the IDE. Specifying input data in this fashion provides a useful aid in testing for expected JSP and servlet output.

To specify parameters for a JSP page:

  1. In the Projects window or Files window, right-click the JSP file and choose Properties.
  2. In the Request Parameters dialog box, type the parameters in the  format.
  3. Click OK.
  4. Click Close to exit the Properties window.

The IDE saves the parameters and automatically passes them to the JSP or servlet the next time you select the file and choose Run File from the pop-up menu.

tip  The HTTP Monitor enables you to monitor data flow on the server.
