Tomcat hangs if i click on refresh button

[yilmaz <yi...@hwajet.com.tw>]

Hi guys,

Did any one expereince the following problem?
first let me tell my environment
i use tomcat4-b7, on win2000, my jvm is jdk1.3
i have a simple jsp file which simply dynamically displays images
the name of the images are dynamically created.
when first time i acess my jsp file, it compiles and displays the
images correctly without any problem, but for the second time it can't
display
whether i refresh the page or come back from another web address
it jsut displays a white blank page without any error.
Any idea about what is happening here, any logical expalantion?
or is it a kinda metaphysical phenomena :) (joking)
thanks for helping me
have a trouble -free weekend :)
yilmaz
