Saad,
I think you can accomplish the behaviour you describe by redirecting the
browser to the same page that invoked the servlet.
Try the following code in your servlet:
String nextPage="/Login.jsp"; //Set this var to the name of your html
page.
// Get this servlet's context
ServletContext sc = this.getServletContext();
// Wrap the JSP Page name in a RequestDispatcher
if (nextPage != null && nextPage.length()>0) {
RequestDispatcher rd = sc.getRequestDispatcher(nextPage);
if (rd != null) {
// Pass control to the JSP page
try
{
rd.forward(request, response);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
String msg = "Problem invoking JSP Page " + nextPage;
sc.log(msg, e);
}
}
}
