Forwarding to a servlet

Hi!

What's a clean way to forward a request to another existent non-Wicket
servlet?

I have a wicket page that handles user input, then the input should be
processed by the existing servlet. 

Rather than redirecting to an external URL, I thought it would be nice
to just forward the request to the other servlet. However, I'm worried
that this will leave Wicket is some strange state...


Thanks!
David

This seemed to work just fine:

  RequestCycle.get().setRequestTarget( redirectTarget );

However, I'm running into a problem... not sure if it's related or not,
so I'll start a new thread.

Ok, good to know.

Still not sure what I want yet... in the process of figuring that out.
Hopefully will know when I get back in front of my machine tomorrow...

Thanks for the reply.

Hi David

I think you could just use

response.sendRedirect() and request.forward() , rest of the code should 
still be processed.. But are you expecting the user to return from the 
servlet?
