I have a feeling (but I might be wrong) that the sendRedirect only works for
POST method. For GET method, try to use RequestDispatcher instead.

Re: Redirection Trouble [Scanned by Yellow Pages PostMaster]
Hi Roy: I think it's because you cannot commit response to your browser before
you try to redirect. Here's what the docs say:
If the response has already been committed, this method throws an
IllegalStateException. After using this
method, the response should be considered to be committed and should not be
written to.
