The == operator checks for object identity in this case, not identical
values. You wan to say:
if (HTTPMethod.equals("POST"))

Why does this *always* evaluate to false??
String HTTPMethod = request.getMethod();
if (HTTPMethod == "POST") {
System.out.println("True");
} else {
System.out.println("False");
}
Yet
System.out.println(HTTPMethod);
On a form submit prints POST.
I'm stumped.
