Hi,
The Javadoc documentation for getRequestDispatcher() will tell
> you that you need to use a context-relative URL that starts with "/". If
> your logon page is in the document root directory, the path would be
> "/LogonPage.jsp". egs in you case..i guess it would be
"/XMPlace/CreateFolder.jsp"
Hope this helps,
R2
