The <jsp:forward> tag is for redirecting a request to another
jsp/servlet/html page within the same context. In other words---on the same
server. I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong about the scope of
"context".
It sounds like you want to make the browser go to another machine, which is
a client-side action. For this you just output an HTML page containing meta
tags or javascript.

Subject: forward to an absolute URL
Hi,
I understand that I can forward a request to an other page with
<jsp:forward page="URL"/>. My example works with relative URL but how
can I forward to a page such as "http://www.netscape.com"?
