Sending a response back to MIDlet from Servlet

[Saaji]

Hi ppl,
I'm trying to do a MIDlet/Servlet communication via
HTTPConnection using the POST method. I can send a parameter to my
Servlet from the MIDlet but how can I retrieve the information after
processing done by the servlet? I give an out.println("<processed
info>") but it does not seem to return anything.
Another doubt is can I send images/pics to my MIDlet from the
Servlet as part of a response? If so what all formats does the MIDlet
support?
Please reply as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance,
Sajida

Return the response as the content of the HTTP response, and have the MIDlet
extract it.

The easiest way is to define your own protocol for packaging that data in
the response content.
