Hi, Mike,
>From the spec :
getRequestDispatcher
public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String path)
Returns a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the resource
located at the given path. A RequestDispatcher object can be used to forward
a request to the resource or to include the resource in a response. The
resource can be dynamic or static.
The pathname must begin with a "/" and is interpreted as relative to the
current context root. Use getContext to obtain a RequestDispatcher for
resources in foreign contexts. This method returns null if the
ServletContext cannot return a RequestDispatcher.
Parameters:
path - a String specifying the pathname to the resource
Returns:
a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the resource at the
specified path
See Also:
RequestDispatcher, getContext(java.lang.String)
The important sentence (relative to your example) is :
"The pathname must begin with a "/" and is interpreted as relative to the
current context root."

One thing that you need to do is make an URL object from the string of the
URL, so you need to add a line: URL someURL = new
URL("http://newurl/servletname";);
because I think the method getRequestDispatcher(Url url) takes a url object.

Subject: Redirect from one servlet to another?
Hello gang.
Anyone have any idea how to do this? I will paste a code snippet below that
Im working on and it doesn't seem to work.
I have a feeling that you can redirect to a different domain, is this true?
Any input would be appreciated.
// Do Redirect to page
try {
String url = "http://newurl/servletname;
RequestDispatcher rd =
this.getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(url);
rd.forward(req, res);
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
TIA
Mike
