Re: [JPublish-developer] how to redirect from one page to another

[Anthony E. <me...@an...>]

In JPublish 1.x and 2.x there are several ways to do it depending on how 
you want it to appear to the end user. In your action you can either do 
an HTTP direct using:

context.put("redirect", "url")

In this case the URL will be updated in the browser and request 
processing will stop after the current action completes. Alternatively 
you can use the RequestDispatcher forward:

dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("url")
dispatcher.forward(request, response)

In this case request processing will not stop although the result of 
further processing will never return to the browser (since you have 
already moved to another page).

In JPublish 3 I've changed the first method to 
context.setRedirect("url") but otherwise it is the same.

Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
