Hi Samba, I’m not really sure if XmlResponseWriter would do more than your suggestion in this case. Maybe it writes some additional state or java script.
I would suggest to first implement the solution using XmlResponseWriter und try to inspect the generated XML-Response (i.e. using Firebug) and probably the response headers. If there is no additional content in the response (or headers), your solution should work as well.

We would want that piece of code to be independent of any dependencies on any of the UI frameworks. Is it possible to write some thing like: final boolean isPartialRequest = "true".equals(req.getHeader("Tr-XHR-Message")); response.setContentType("text/xml"); PrintWriterout = response.getWriter(); if (isPartialRequest) { out.println("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>"); out.println("<?Tr-XHR-Response-Type ?>\n"); out.println("<redirect>"); out.println("</pageURL>"); out.println("</redirect>"); out.close(); }else { response.sendRedirect(pageURL); } Thanks and Regards, Samba On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 8:31 PM, Samba <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Thanks a lot Harald, I'll try it out and let you know how it went..

We are having a filter that redirects the users login ( jsp ) page if the user is not autheticated or the authentication timed out. But after redirecting, I'm seeing the following error in firebug console: ["Invalid PPR response. The response-headers were:\nDate: Wed, 22 Jul 2009 09:52:49 GMT\nServer: Apache\n..."]Common1_2_7.js (line 10649) ["Error ", TypeError: a5 has no properties message=a5 has no properties, " delivering XML request status changed to ", function()] 1. I read on the internet that redirects on AJAX requests cannot be made server side and can only be made via javascript, is that true? 2. I tried adding a PPR hook to identify if the response is regarding related to session timeout and if yes, then would change the document location to login page however, this is not working as expected; perhaps I'm doing something wrong. Here is what I'm doing: function register(){ TrPage.getInstance().getRequestQueue().addStateChangeListener(callbackMethod); } function callbackMethod(requestEvent) { if(requestEvent.getStatus()=TrXMLRequestEvent.STATUS_COMPLETE) { var response=+requestEvent.getResponseXML()); if(has info about session timeout) documnet.location="/login.jsp"; } } register(); But I'm getting error saying requestEvent.getStatus() is not defined. Can some one help me how to redirect users to login page on PPR requestts? Thanks and Regards, Samba
