Re: RTFM
no, I'm not returning anything from the servlet. It's not returning anything! You must return after using sendRedirect, otherwise your servlet will continue running. That's probably the problem, as it redirects you to another page, but continues it's execution. Try returning.

Howdy, It is either so glaringly obvious that no one deems an answer worthwhile (RTFM), or so really really difficult, and no one knows how do this. Surely not. Either way I need to know. Don't forget two more options: people don't care to read your message at all, or they read it and don't care for the tone. Either one is highly likely with this message.

Hi, Now I have your attention, will someone tell me if it is possible to forward control (either by JSP or Servlet) from one context to another, in the same browser window? i.e: forward from http://locahost:8080/app1/... to http://locahost:8080/app2/... in the same window (IE). It is either so glaringly obvious that no one deems an answer worthwhile (RTFM), or so really really difficult, and no one knows how do this. Surely not. Either way I need to know.

That should've been RTFP. P=Post Doesn't that just require a hyperlink?

RE: RTFM
It'd difficult from your poast to figure out what you're trying to accomplish. The phrase forward control from one context to another is quite ambiguous: * Are you trying to create a response that includes output from resources from multiple contexts? * While using one app, do you want to direct the user to pages in a different app? * Are you talking client side or server side? * Can you give us the scenario you're addressing? Often people ask questions that aren't phrased properly, so it's important to understand exactly what you're trying to do before going off and suggesting one of a hundred different possible answers. justin BTW: I would suggest trying not to be guilty of stiring interest any more. It's not looked fondly upon by those who can most help you.

There is no need to set crossContext to true if you are doing this with response.sendRedirect as you are just telling the browser to hit a different URL.

yes, you are right. i was thinking of server side forwarding
RequestDispatcher rd =
getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(/app1);
rd.forward(req,resp);

Re: RTFM
no, I'm not returning anything from the servlet. I am now telling the servlet to forward to a JSP then use a javascript window.location.replace(page). SAME! Tell me, is a fully formed URL necessary here? e.g: window.location.replace(http://lalala:8080/app2/index.jsp); or response.sendRedirect(http://lalala:8080/app2/index.jsp;); to switch between contexts? No that I can sucessfully forward to the destination app with ANY URL format! thanks for your efforts G.

These should be done in the order given (2a and 2b can be in either order as you like). #4 absolutely, positively should be a last-ditch option.
