Servlet API doesn't allow you to write request attributes (parameters,
headers...)
You can try to forward to a new ActionForward object, build with the mapping
to your "another" action, adding needed parameter with GET syntax :
...
return new ActionForward( NEXT_ACTION_URL + "?param=" + paramValue );
(I'm not sure it will work...)
Another solution is to put param value in request and forward to a JSP that
will redirect browser to the NEXT_ACTION_URL with param added :
# in your action:
request.setAttribute("param", paramValue);
return new ActionForward( "redirect.jsp" );
# redirect.jsp :
<form action="NEXT_ACTION_URL" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" value="<% request.getAttribute("param") %>">
</form>
<script>
document.forms[0].submit();
</script>
