This is the correct behavior for <jsp:forward>
it's the server side request that's handed over to the new location and the
client doesn't (shouldn't) see this. (it's a feature ;-)
What you want to do isn't a forward but a redirect.
try
<%response.sendRedirect("../folder2/page2.jsp")%>
instead.

> Can somebody please suggest a solution for the following scenario:
>
> 1. Client browser requests for a page Page1.jsp from Web server as
> http://localhost/folder1/Page1.jsp
>
> 2. Page1.jsp is in turn doing a forward to Page2.jsp lying in adifferent
> folder as :
> <jsp:forward page="../folder2/page2.jsp"/>
> 3. The output from Page2.jsp gets sent to the browser.
> 4. However, the location URL of browser still shows the old location as :
> http://localhost/folder1/Page1.jsp
> whereas the page that is currently loaded in browser is Page2.jsp from
> folder2.
>
> How do we make the location URL to point to the same place as the
> destination page (in this case, Page2.jsp)
> whenever a request forward is done internally ?
>
> ThankX in advance
