Question

I am using Google chrome extension tool Simple REST Client to test my web services. How to call post method with multiple parameters. I searched in internet, there is no enough documentation for this app.

Example POST method

    @POST
     @Path("createcategory")
     @Consumes("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
     @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML)
     public void CreateCategory(@FormParam("cname") String cname,@FormParam("cdescription") String cdescription) 
    {


     CategoriesBO category = new CategoriesBO();
     category.setCategoryName(cname);
     category.setCategoryDescription(cdescription);

     CategoriesEntityHandler handler = new CategoriesEntityHandler();
     try {
        category = handler.createCategory(category);


    } catch (Exception e) {

    }

}

This link suggested adding

"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" 

in the header box and a paramlist:

(param1=val1&param2=val2&...) 

in the data box, which worked for me.
