Hello, any help would be much appreciated.

The basic scenario is as follows - I have a form page called form.jsp 
(http://localhost/webapp/form.jsp).  Upon submission, the form data is 
processed by a servlet mapped to the url '/process' 
(http://localhost/webapp/process).  Once the servlet has completed 
processing the form data, it forwards control to a results page 
(http://localhost/webapp/result.jsp) via

    RequestDispatcher dispatch = request.getRequestDispatcher
(forwardPath);
    dispatch.forward(request, response);

My question is this - although control has been forwarded to the 
results page, the browser's url is still 
http://localhost/webapp/process, which is ok with me; however, if the 
page is refreshed, the browser prompts for the form data to be 
resubmitted and the processing is repeated (which for my application 
happens to be quite substantial), rather than refreshing the contents 
of the results page.

I suppose this is a minor annoyance that could be worked around by 
displaying a link to the results page rather than forwarding directly 
to it, but I'd rather implement the latter.

Does anyone know of a solution or workaround for this problem?

Thanks in advance,

James
