Hi,

I've noticed that numerous posts on servlet problems are in fact related
to an improper understanding of HTTP1.1. Especially problems related to
sendRedirect, setStatus, sendError,...

My advice is to read the HTTP specs (which are available in many
formats) at :
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/
The specs explain exactly what a client expects in response to your
commands and vice-versa.

As the servlet API manages to shield you from low-level operations, none
of this is required for basic servlets. But as soon as you start to
write a true 'web-application', you're bound to run into issues with
these things...

Hope this helps someone out,
 Danny Martens
