  - NORMAL
```
public static final Encoding NORMAL
```
    normal form encoding ("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "normal".
  - MULTIPART
```
public static final Encoding MULTIPART
```
    form encoding for forms with INPUT file elements, that is, forms that upload files ("multipart/form-data")
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "multipart".
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static Encoding[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (Encoding c : Encoding.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static Encoding valueOf(java.lang.String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getValue
```
public java.lang.String getValue()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getValue in interface ValueEnum
