Question

I am using Spring MVC. How can I get text box value of the following snippet in my controller method?

<form name="forgotpassord" action="forgotpassword" method="POST" >
    <ul>
        <li><label>User:</label> <input type='text' name='j_username' /></li>
        <li><label>&nbsp;</label> <input type="submit" value="OK" class="btn"></li>
    </ul>
</form>

You can use @RequestParam like this:

@RequestMapping(value="/forgotpassword", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String recoverPass(@RequestParam("j_username") String username) {
    //do smthin
}
