Hi,
You can do it using the following code in your Servlet.
=================================================================================
public void doGet ( HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res )
throws ServletException, IOException
{
res.setContentType( "text/html" );
HttpSession session = req.getSession( true );
PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
if ( session.getValue( "waitPage" ) == null ) {
session.putValue( "waitPage", Boolean.TRUE );
out.println( "<html><head>" );
out.println( "<title>Please Wait...</title>" );
// The interesting part:
// <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0">
out.println( "<meta http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"0\">" );
out.println( "</head><body>" );
out.println( "<br><br><br>" );
out.println( "<center><h1>Your records are being accessed.<br>" );
out.println( "Please wait.</h1></center>" );
out.close();
}
else {
session.removeValue( "waitPage" );
out.println( "<html><head><title>Example 6</title></head>" );
out.println( "<body>" );
out.println( "<h1>Countdown</h1>" );
for ( int i = 10; i > 0; i-- ) {
out.print( "<h1>" );
out.print( i );
out.println( "</h1>" );
try {
Thread.sleep( 1000 );
}
catch ( InterruptedException e ) {}
}
out.println( "<h1>Liftoff</h1>" );
out.println( "</body></html>" );
out.close();
}
}
=====================================================================
I picked up the above source code from an article on the JavaWorld site.
