I think he is dealing with the issue that, when a servlet/jsp forwards to a
different JSP page, the URL seen in the user's browser does not reflect the
forwarded URL. He doesn't want to use sendRedirect of course, since this is
slower than server-side forwarding. I thought it might be possible to
change the URL seen by the browser by calling request.setHeader() to change
the Location or Content-Location header to that of the forwarded URL.
However, I tried this and it doesn't work for me. So, I'm not sure what a
solution might be.
