Answer 1

If you have a form like that:

<form method="post">
    <input type="text" name="words"><br>
    <input type="text" name="words"><br>
    <input type="submit">
</form>

Sends if you put one and two in the textboxs

words=one&words=two

For getting,

String[] words = request.getParameterValues("words");

Answer 2

You do not name the dynamically created input elements (to "words" or "meaning")

        var element2 = document.createElement("input");
        element2.name = "words";
        element2.type = "text";
        cell2.appendChild(element2);
