my problem is, let say the user enter data into second form which named as "formB", when user click on search button which named as "cam_search", the form will pass for processing, after process..it bring back user to second form ("formB" , but so far, it only go back to first form ..how to i solve it ?

i have put <a href="#secondform"></a> tag below of second form as shown in bold font

in the forward path, i put /thispage.jsp?#secondform , but it still not work ..anyone have idea ?

thank you !
