How do we redirect in struts ? .. I know we can use <forward name="logon" path="/logon.jsp"/> in the struts-config.xml to forward to another jsp.

A redirect, is something that comes back to the browser, and causes it to make a new requires (redirect) right way. The browser is aware of it and that changes the URL that the browser is pointing to. For example, if you forward from One.jsp to Two.jsp, the browser will show One.jsp in the URL. On the other hand if you redirect the browser will show Two.jsp. -AP_ -----Original Message----- From: Brian Holzer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 12:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: redirect vs forward Hey there, I am kind of confused about what the difference is between a forward and a redirect. In reading the documentation on the logic:forward and redirect tags. With the forward tag, whether a forward or redirect is sent, is determined by the redirect param in the <action> definition. The redirect tag sends a redirect to the browser, but what is the difference between the two? Why would I want to define an Actions forward so that it is sent as a redirect? Maybe the answer will be evident to me once I know the difference b/t the two. Can someone shed some light on this for me?
