JSP Page Forwarding Problem

[talha06]

Hello to everyone,

I have been in a boring situation in my project.. I can't forward to a jsp page from my servlet.. I found many codes; but none of them worked.. The URL adress never changes.. (Always stays at the same page)

Here's some of codes I tried:

RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("/admin.jsp");
rd.forward(request, response);

or

getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/admin.jsp").forward(request, response);

or

response.setHeader("Location","/admin.jsp");

I need ur helps.. Thanx in advance..
Talha

Hi

All forward does is pass the request on to another page. It does not redirect the user.

You want to use JavaScript or a meta tag to redirect the user to a different URL (that's the only way you can change the location bar).

You can do an http header redirect just like in asp, php, and others.
