Thanks for any replies. http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=775280 I am aware of the technical differences between response.sendRedirect() and <jsp:forward...> i.e. that the first one sends an instruction to the browser to request the specified page, and the second simply sends the specified page.<p>However, can anyone tell me why one should be used instead of the other? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=775275 How to pass parameters to a bean constructor. I can create a bean constructor with parameters. but bow do I pass values to the bean from a JSP page on creation..Is there any way to do this.. <br> Also, is there any way to access bean properties which are set using jsp:setProperty, from another bean.

I can bring the included pages up, but can't get a JSP to include them.</p> <h4>Example:</h4> <p>In shared.war, I have the file /htmlcommon/header.jsp. In search.war, I have the document /search.jsp</p> <p>In search.jsp, I have the following include statement:</p> <code><jsp:include page="/shared/htmlcommon/header.jsp"/></code> <p>However, when I load the page, the header doesn't come in and I get an error 404 - not found.</p> <p>I'd appreciate any thoughts on this.
