Karl,
You were answering another question at the time, but your note inspires me
to ask....
You've noted that if a form has no action statement, then it automatically
submits
back to itself.
First, I assume that it actually automatically submits back to whatever URL
was used to
get the data in the first place. If the data was obtained from a servlet
via a forward to
a jsp page, the submit would still send data to the servlet URL. (Is this a
correct
assumption?)
Do you know whether or not sessions can be maintained without an explicit
action statement
if URL rewriting is being used for this purpose? (Cookies are disabled.)
Thanks,
-AMT
