Bugrat #356 not reproducible

Regarding the following bug:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=356

While testing for bug #484, I also tested #356 (the same JSP pages
calling sendRedirect()). All my tests showed no bugs.

Oddly the Bugzilla report says Tomcat 3.2 Final, but the Bugrat report
says Tomcat 3.2.1 Final. I tested using 3.2.1 Final.

HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() sends a brief HTTP Response header
(HttpServletResponse.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY) that tells the client's
browser to load the new URL. This header might not be properly
interpreted by older browsers. However, the anonymous reporter(s) of
this bug did not mention what type of browser they were using.
sendRedirect() works for me using Netscape 4.76 on Linux.

Again, I'd like it if someone double-checks this for me, or if anyone
can report it with browser specifics.

Thanks,
Steve
