Ok, here is what I was trying to do:
I need to log outgoing connection from our site when a user clicks on
a link that takes him to one of our partnet sites. When the click on a link
that goes to another site they are first redirected to a servlet that logged
the url they want to go to and then uses sendRedirect function to send along their
merry
way. It works great until we tried making our forms use it as well. sendredirect is not
made for forwarding data not in the query string. the Requestdispatcher does do this
but
it seems to only work if the forward target in on the same server as forwarding page.
is there a workaround?
