The main difference between sendRedirect() and forward() that I can tell is that forward() will preserve your lifespan=page -level information whereas sendRedirect() will loose it (since a new page is being shown). Forward preserves this since you use the same request object. If you are using sessions, I don't think it matters that much. cc Nitin Patil wrote: > Hi Sam, > > You can use the "res.sendRedirect(URLName)" method, where "res" is the > "HttpServletResponse" kindof object.
