What's the difference between forward and sendRedirect?



Posted By: Avi Date: 6 November 2010 04:35:56 AM
 Answer:

forward is server side redirect; when it is invoked, the request is sent to another resource on the server, without the client being informed that a different resource is going to process the request and this process occurs completely with in the web container and then returns to the calling method sendRedirect is client side redirect; when is invoked, it causes the web container to return to the browser indicating that a new URL should be requested. Because the browser issues a completely new request any object that are stored as request attributes before the redirect occurs will be lost. So redirect is slower than forward.
