Your URL pattern /* is set to send all requests to your ClockServlet so it keeps redirecting to your jsp page which just matches your servlet pattern so your servlet just keeps getting called again and again and again.... You probably want to do a server side redirect using a RequestDispatcher and not a client-side redirect like you are currently doing. Stephen
