thankx in advance...Hmm. I think you are mixing something up here. Why would you use an IFrame for entering text? IFrame is used for including content from different HTML-pages inside your page.
If you want to have a textbox for an user to enter text into and submit it to a server, you need a form and a textarea inside that. Like this:
<form action="myServlet" method="post">
<textarea name="myArea">
</textarea>
<input type="Submit" value="Ok">
</form>Change the action in the form to reflect the mapping to your servlet.
Then you can just do a String enteredText = request.getParameter( "myArea" ); inside your servlet.
If you insist that you need to use an IFrame, I guess the only way to do it would be to write a Javascript function, that copies the contents from the IFrame to a hidden field before the page is submitted to your servlet. In your servlet you would read the value from the hidden field.
