Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi

Quite a simple problem, I hope but I am having no luck what so ever in solving it.

I need to share a users session between two servlets however once I create the session on one servlet, I can not seem to pass that client session object to the second servlet.

Example: Users logs in via a login page on submit, a servlet is called extracting their username from the HTML form and is used to retrieve info from a database which is then logged in their session data, the servlet then calls another servlet which should then recall the same session and show their data, sadly this is not happening.

I would use a URL re-writting method, but I need to keep the session id away from pryig eyes.

So would I be better off using a RequestDispatcher ?

Any help would be greatfully recieved ??
Many Thanks
