As far as I know, it sounds right to me...

Jeff,
Thanks for reply. So, probably always use response.sendRedirect
with absolute url to something out of my webapp, but RequestDispatcher
for moving to other sources inside my webapp?
Does that sound right?

Hi, Jason.
I believe that that is precisely the intended use of the
response.sendRedirect ... when you are redirecting OFF your site (to an
absolute path). The specs say that sendRedirect takes an absolute path, so it
is not good to use for forwarding around within your site, where relative
paths are obviously best. Good to hear that you're using the
RequestDispatcher for this purpose now.
HTH,

when you say response.sendRedirect doesn't work, what kind of
error/unexpected behavior are you getting?

Anyone have any hard and fast rules, good links, general info,
do and don't lists, or anything about these two?
We moved from iPlanet 4.1 where we did all redirection with
response.sendRedirect. That didn't work with tomcat so I
started using the forward method of RequestDispatcher. Well,
now I need to use a NON relative path to redirect the user
off our site. While I think response.sendRedirect will work
in this instance I cannot seem to formulate a theory why it works
here and not in other parts of our site.
Does anyone have any information on this I can read, or advice?
Thanks!
Jason
