resetting variables when using dynamic jsp

[graham]

if an error occurs in my jsp page i send the to a different jsp page informing them of the error and a link back to the same page.

but the jsp doesnt respond to the new information, if they type in the same error.

it only works if i restart the server. any ideas what is wrong?

The servlet/jsp is in the servers cache, you will have to find out how to flush/
disable this cache for your server. A specific servlet does not by default reload
when the class file is changed.

yea but if i go from pageA to pageB to pageC and then back to pageB again the information in pageB that was got from pageA will be erased if i 'reflush' the page.

It sounds like you need to rethink your user response logic, mabye use cookies to
recreate old states of information.
