Hi Roland, I have read the article you mentioned here, but it did not solve my problem.
Let me explain more about my original question: I want to develop a servlet that will reside in http://fooo.com/tiger, I want to use this servlet to do following: 1. collect all the form data from a jsp and 2. pre-process the form data based on some form element values and (the above 2 steps are ordinary) 3. then POST all the request information to an external url: http://bar.com/shamu. Note that I cannot use response.sendRedirect() because there will be huge data in the jsp form. Neither can I use RequestDispatcher.forward(request,response) because it will forward the request to an external url. I thought HttpClient is the perfect tool to realize this "redirect with a POST" problem. But as you said, maybe I need to parse the parameter myself. This is really not what I want to do in PreSend servlet. At first it seemed to me very simple: just forward everything in the request object to an external url, without even knowing what's inside that request.
