IIRC regarding servlet containers such as Tomcat (which is embedded into
OFBIZ). Is that if you send a redirect, then the client browser makes a
*new* HttpRequest for the redirect URL. So any attributes you store in the
previous HttpRequest context are lost because they are not included in the
new context.
Either:
1. Do not use redirect but simply serve the correct content.
2. Use the Session context instead (and be sure to cleanup after yourself)
