How do you retrieve extra path information?

Use the following HttpServletRequest methods to retrieve the extra path information:

Method	Description
public String getPathInfo()	gets the extra path information
public String getPathTranslated()	gets the fully qualified path of the file on the server

For example, if you have the URL:

http://server:8080/servlet/ServletName/MyPath/MyFile.data?nameparam=John+Smith

getPathInfo() returns "/MyFile.data"
getPathTranslated() could return "c:\JavaWebServer\html\MyPath\MyFile.data"
