Subject: RE: Is their a bug in Tomcat with the
RequestDispatcher.forward(url) method?
A forward is an internal redirect, the client never sees it (and therefore
never updates the URL in the status bar of the browser).
Tomcat is working properly, and it sounds like Weblogic is doing a redirect
and is broken.
