What you probably want is Page.sendRedirectAndEnd() (from Webware CVS) or
Response.sendRedirect() (if you're using an older version of Webware).  This
sends a redirect back to the browser.

application.forward() transfers control to a different servlet completely
within the appserver, so it's not able to switch from ssl to non-ssl.
