we have done something of that kind through changing the target="_top" in
the HTML which ask user to enter the loginid and password.
and if you want it to be done in the servlet code than may be you can write
a small java script into out as
out.println(" <script> top.location='/text/app/home.html' </script>"
); after validation.
i'm still looking for some better ways of changing the target dynamically
inside the servlets code.

Subject: Servlet Redirect question
Question everyone!!!!!!
Quick background and then the question. I am doing a
redirect to an html page(index.html) after a username and login has been
validated. The redirect works fine except that the new page is being
displayed in the middle frame of the index.html. Is there a way that I
can, in my servlet code, dispose of the index.html file and have only
the file(home.html frame) I am redirecting be the one displayed? Please
see code below.
Cheers
Pat
//imports java servlet libraries
doPost(req,res);
{
out.println("<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Access Denied</TITLE></HEAD>");
out.println("<BODY>Your login and password are invalid.<BR>");
out.println("You may want to
<A>HREF=http://barney:8080/index.html>try again</A>");
out.println("</BODY></HTML>");
}
else if ( !req.getParameter("username").equals("") &&
!req.getParameter("userpasswd").equals(""))
{
boolean isValidUser = validateUser(Uname,Upasswd);
if ( isValidUser ) {
//IT IS A SUCCESS DO THE REDIRECT HERE....
res.sendRedirect("http://barney:8080/text/app/home.html");
}
else
{
//FAILED RETURN MESSAGE TO USER
out.println("<p> User Validation Failed for User: "
+ Uname); }
}
}
