hi,
I would like to know how to redirect a filter to the request URL itself... I have tried




but, it does not seem to work.

Any help is appreciated.
TIA

Why would you want to do that? It will call the same filters / servlet again, and again, and again, and again...

Anyway, moving to our servlet forum.

Ok. I have a filter which checks if the user is already logged in. If the user has not logged in, it redirects the user to the login page, but, if the user is already logged in, I just want to be able to process the user's request ie, forward/redirect to the user specified url.

Any suggestions.

You don't redirect in that case; you call the next resource in the filter chain. Any tutorial on filters will show you the correct pattern.
