>From what I understand, using just a servlet, that will be tough. By the
time the request gets to the servlet, the browser should have determined
where that response is going, either to it's default target ('_self' unless
you've defined a base href w/ the <BASE ...> tag), or to whatever the
referring object's target points to. It ought to work (never tried) that if
you have some sort of parameter that tells you you need a new window to
first output to a page w/ a javascript redirect that opens a new window with
the servelt as the request (but without your redirecting telltale) and
renders the page, and the immediately goes back so that the redirect page
isn't left in your original window. But that sounds really yucky.
If certain links/forms/whatever always need a new window, no prob. Just use
the target attribute for those. If there's some other logic that defines
when you need a new window, then the above is the idea that pops into my
head.
Probably (hopefully) not the best answer you'll get.
