RE: RTFM?
It's a crude term used by computer nerds in frustration meaning "Read the fucking manual". Usually means that you have asked a question that is covered in the basic tutorials, or which is clearly documented somewhere or has already been covered in previous discussions. -Original Message- From: Sachin Phatak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 15 May 2001 12:08 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RTFM?

That should've been RTFP. P=Post Doesn't that just require a hyperlink? If you wanted to from your web page to google, you'd just have a hyperlink that goes "http://www.google.com/"; Unless you mean something different, that question begs the question: Have you used a web browser before? ;-) Oscar On Wed, 14 Jan 2004, Jerald Powel wrote: > > Hi, > > Now I have your attention, will someone tell me if it is > possible to forward control (either by JSP or Servlet) from one context > to another, in the same browser window? i.e: > > > > forward from http://locahost:8080/app1/... > > to http://locahost:8080/app2/... in the same window (IE). > > > > It is either so glaringly obvious that no one deems an answer worthwhile (RTFM), or > so really really difficult, and no one knows how do this.

RE: RTFM
It'd difficult from your poast to figure out what you're trying to accomplish. The phrase "forward control from one context to another" is quite ambiguous: * Are you trying to create a response that includes output from resources from multiple contexts? * While using one app, do you want to direct the user to pages in a different app? * Are you talking client side or server side? * Can you give us the scenario you're addressing? Often people ask questions that aren't phrased properly, so it's important to understand exactly what you're trying to do before going off and suggesting one of a hundred different possible answers. justin BTW: I would suggest trying not to be "guilty" of stiring interest any more. It's not looked fondly upon by those who can most help you.

Currently I am using RequestDispatcher or response.sendRedirect from a servlet in app1. But in the window, app2 appeqars to be loading in the address bar, but app1 is in fact loaded but with broken image links/error messages etc. So it appears to looking in the right place...just for the wrong things!

There is no need to set crossContext to true if you are doing this with response.sendRedirect as you are just telling the browser to hit a different URL.

yes, you are right. i was thinking of server side forwarding RequestDispatcher rd = getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/app1"); rd.forward(req,resp); On Wed, 14 Jan 2004 20:48:03 -0500 Ben Souther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > There is no need to set crossContext to true if you are doing this > with response.sendRedirect as you are just telling the browser to hit > a different URL. > > > > > On Wednesday 14 January 2004 08:50 pm, you wrote: > > also make sure you have crossContext="true" in your respective > > directives in server.xml > > > > > > On Wed, 14 Jan 2004 17:40:33 -0800 > > > > Jerry Ford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Okay, from this detailed description---which sounds to me like it > > > should work---here's my SWAG (silly wild-ass guess): After your > > > response.sendRedirect() in the servlett, do you, um, well, include > > > an explicit return statement? > > > > > > Jerry > > > > > > Jerald Powel wrote: > > > >OK, what I am trying to do is simple in theory.

Re: RTFM
There is no need to set crossContext to true if you are doing this with response.sendRedirect as you are just telling the browser to hit a different URL.

Re: RTFM
no, I'm not returning anything from the servlet. I am now telling the servlet to forward to a JSP then use a javascript window.location.replace(page). SAME! Tell me, is a fully formed URL necessary here? e.g: window.location.replace(http://lalala:8080/app2/index.jsp); or response.sendRedirect("http://lalala:8080/app2/index.jsp";); to switch between contexts? No that I can sucessfully forward to the destination app with ANY URL format! thanks for your efforts G.

Re: RTFM
> no, I'm not returning anything from the servlet. It's not "returning anything"! You must return after using sendRedirect, otherwise your servlet will continue running. That's probably the problem, as it redirects you to another page, but continues it's execution. Try returning.

Re: RTFM and Ettiquette was: MY ATTITUDE
At 05:59 PM 2/13/2003 -0800, Jeff Wishnie wrote: Although I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment--do your homework before asking for help--lets not forget that given the disorganized state of most opensource documentation, being pointed to the proper docs helps a lot. Specifically, when someone asks a question that is answered in some docs, a useful answer would be something like: "You'll find the web.xml format explained in Sun's Servlet 2.3 spec, available at java.sun.com" Replying "Yo, just, RTFM" is rude and not helpful to anyone. I'm pretty new to Tomcat as well and appreciate being pointed to the place where I can find an answer as much as being given told an answer directly. Having to manually repost a link to the documentation over and over again gets tiresome. The clever list member will quickly make a handy list of links to post automatically in response, but still has to go through the trouble of posting it repeatedly, and it also clutters the list. The solution that causes the least amount of distress to all parties (that I can think of) is to teach netiquette to Internet newcomers in some hard-to-avoid location. It can be physical (school courses, savvy parents, etc.) or virtual (a website, or a tutorial in an Internet provider's software package). That netiquette must at the very least instruct newcomers how to find online answers to a question: 1. Locate an official homepage for the topic, using a web search engine. 2a. Search archives of an official discussion forum, mailing list, Usenet group, etc. for the answer. 2b. Search above for an FAQ. 3. Search the web in general. 4. Post to a forum, asking the question, asking for an FAQ if one couldn't be found by now, being polite and specific. These should be done in the order given (2a and 2b can be in either order as you like). #4 absolutely, positively should be a last-ditch option. This is the only way we are going to properly leverage computer automation, until NLU is achieved; going to 4 before 1, 2, or 3 in effect requires everyone to have their own personal research assistant, which is ludicrously impractical in the long run.
