Getting a JSP to use a particular session ...

[John Hawkins]

[Apologies if this has been answered before - I had a look at the archives but couldn't find anything]   Okay,          This is the problem :   o  I have a JSP that creates some beans in session scope. o  It then calls a piece of code which uses URL.OpenStream to open an inputstream to connect to another     JSP on the same server o  This second JSP needs to operate with/access objects in the session of the first JSP   How do I do this ?  The second JSP is always created with a new session ...   I've tried encodeURL to add the session id to the called URL - this doesn't work, I'm guessing because the browser supports cookies and so encodeURL leaves the URL untouched.   I've also toyed with the idea of having the second JSP get the HttpServletContext and manually request the session with the correct ID ... but this is a deprecated API and so I don't want to use it.  Is there a non-deprecated way of doing this ?   Any other ideas ?   Many thanks, John.
