Actually this is similar to what I had originally tried doing. What actually happened was the RequestDispatcher did forward to the correct servlet based on the parameter, which is fine. But the problem was it immediately went back to the servlet that the form had submitted to to start with. But anyway, it\'s fixed now with JavaScript. :-) thanks, Liz [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gymell.com \"A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem\'s Java Servlet API Technology.\" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Liz: How about having a \"DecidingServlet\" in the action url of your JSP form. (Make sure the method is post). In DecidingServlet, do a getParameter(\"ButtonA\") and getParameter(ButtonB\") and use a RequestDispatcher in the following way: if (req.getParameter(\"ButtonA\") != null){ Code to forward to servlet A with ReqDispatcher; } else if (req.getParameter(\"ButtonB\") != null) { Code to forward to servlet B with ReqDispatcher; } //IMPORTANT: Do not add any code here in DecidingServlet! If you do, this part of the code wil in fact be executed after the forward.. Hope this helps!
