Hi David,
I met the same problem, and now I just know :-):
1.
I think "one HTTP transaction" includes "request+response", if your servlet
doesn't "response anything:-)", the browser will "when ever you go, what ever
you do, I will be right here waiting for you:-) :-)"
2. if you use "applet -servlet", I suggest you "look:-)" the following lines:
...
URL url=new URL("http://IPAddr:port/servlet/myservlet");
URLConnection urlc=url.openConnection();
urlc.connect(); //so the "response of your servlet has been "received by "urlc"
URL url2=new URL("http://..."); // >...load another page immediately after
the servlet starts..."
getAppletContext().showDocument(url2);
...
I test the above in:
a. winnt40+IE5
b.winnt40+Netscape4.7
c. solaris7+hotjava1.0.2
(WEB Server is : solaris7+Javca WEB Server2.0)
3.
if you use "HTML-servlet", I don't know how to do it:-)
