Hi,

I created a session object and added a string (username) to it.
Systemout.println shows the username from the request. My page is then
forwarded to another as follows:

        RequestDispatcher disp = ctx.getRequestDispatcher(target);
        disp.forward(request, response);

On this jsp page, I have teh following code:

  String usr = (String)session.getAttribute("usr");
  out.println("User: " + usr + "!");
  out.println("Session Id:  " + session.getId());

The page displays the session Id but not the usr.

I'm quite baffled at why this is the case.

looking in google for similar problems, but any help would be much
appreciated!

Rudi
