Well, you can't directly, but you can indirectly. A sendRedirect will
always happen inside
the active window, that's just the way HTTP and browsers work. What you can
do to get
around this is to have the resulting page pop up the window and call the
page that you really
want as the resulting page, passing all of the appropriate parameters, if
needed. Remember,
though, there are some good reasons not to use pop-up windows (e.g.,
session issues with IE).
-----------------------------------------
I'm almost positive you can't. I investigated this quite a bit and all of
the sources I consulted said it couldn't be done. You can specify a target
in an HREF tag or in a form, but not in a servlet redirect.

Subject: Re: sendRedirect or forward?
on a similar train of thought, is it possible to sendRedirect to another
window or frame??
