Question / Problem
|
What's the difference between sendRedirect( ) and forward( ) methods?
|
Solution
|
A sendRedirect method creates a new request (it's also reflected in browser's URL ) where as forward method forwards the same request to the new target(hence the chnge is NOT reflected in browser's URL).
The previous request scope objects are no longer available after a redirect because it results in a new request, but it?s available in forward.
SendRedirectis slower compared to forward.
