I have n number of text fields named in the form "Question.....". How can I get all the parameters which starts with "question" from the JSP page to the Action?

+2  A: 

This should print out all Parameters that start with "Question".

<html><body>
<%@ page import = "java.util.*" %>
<b>Parameters:</b><br>
<%
  Enumeration parameterList = request.getParameterNames();
  while( parameterList.hasMoreElements() )
  {
    String sName = parameterList.nextElement().toString();
    if(sName.toLowerCase.startsWith("question")){
      String[] sMultiple = request.getParameterValues( sName );
      if( 1 >= sMultiple.length )
        // parameter has a single value. print it.
        out.println( sName + " = " + request.getParameter( sName ) + "<br>" );
      else
        for( int i=0; i<sMultiple.length; i++ )
          // if a paramater contains multiple values, print all of them
          out.println( sName + "[" + i + "] = " + sMultiple[i] + "<br>" );
    }
  }
%>
</body></html>

<%@ page import = "java.util.Map" %>
Map<String, String[]> parameters = request.getParameterMap();
for(String parameter : parameters.keySet()) {
    if(parameter.toLowerCase().startsWith("question")) {
        String[] values = parameters.get(parameter);
        //your code here
    }
}
