Say you're accessing pages on localhost, so your URLs take the form
http://localhost:8080/war-file/jsp-file
then the servlet container root is http://localhost:8080/ and a redirect to
"/another-war-file/another.jsp" would be a redirect to:
http://localhost:8080/another-war-file/another.jsp
In sendRedirect, I'm fairly sure that you simply use "/cal/form/index.jsp".
That sort of pattern always works for my webapps.
