Parses a query string passed from the client to the
server and builds a HashTable
object
with key-value pairs.
The query string should be in the form of a string
packaged by the GET or POST method, that is, it
should have key-value pairs in the form key=value,
with each pair separated from the next by a & character.
A key can appear more than once in the query string
with different values. However, the key appears only once in
the hashtable, with its value being
an array of strings containing the multiple values sent
by the query string.
The keys and values in the hashtable are stored in their
decoded form, so
any + characters are converted to spaces, and characters
sent in hexadecimal notation (like %xx) are
converted to ASCII characters.
Params: - s – a string containing the query to be parsed
Throws: - IllegalArgumentException – if the query string
is invalid
Returns: a HashTable
object built
from the parsed key-value pairs

Parses data from an HTML form that the client sends to
the server using the HTTP POST method and the
application/x-www-form-urlencoded MIME type.
The data sent by the POST method contains key-value
pairs. A key can appear more than once in the POST data
with different values. However, the key appears only once in
the hashtable, with its value being
an array of strings containing the multiple values sent
by the POST method.
The keys and values in the hashtable are stored in their
decoded form, so
any + characters are converted to spaces, and characters
sent in hexadecimal notation (like %xx) are
converted to ASCII characters.
Params: - len – an integer specifying the length,
in characters, of the
ServletInputStream
object that is also passed to this
method - in – the
ServletInputStream
object that contains the data sent
from the client
Throws: - IllegalArgumentException – if the data
sent by the POST method is invalid
Returns: a HashTable
object built

Reconstructs the URL the client used to make the request,
using information in the HttpServletRequest
object.
The returned URL contains a protocol, server name, port
number, and server path, but it does not include query
string parameters.
Because this method returns a StringBuffer
,
not a string, you can modify the URL easily, for example,
to append query parameters.
This method is useful for creating redirect messages
and for reporting errors.
Params: - req – a
HttpServletRequest
object
containing the client's request
Returns: a StringBuffer
object containing
the reconstructed URL
