send redirect question

[Rick Bosch]

we have several jsp pages that call beans.  Some beans for one reason or
another will redirect a user to another page, howver in some cases its
possible for a redirect to occur and if the logic of the bean is to continue
writing after a reddirect the client get messed up pages usually the
original then some http headers and then the new page.  How is it jsp pages
are somehow "aware" of a redirect but if i call a redirect from a bean it
seems to be ignored???

thanks
