You can use RequestDispatcher for forwarding from servlet.

RequestDispatcher rd = getServletContext().RequestDispatcher("relative url of jsp").forward(req,res);

Those are a couple of interesting new technologies you've invented there, Ashaak! I'm not sure that I can comment on JSO and Servelts but with JSP and Servlets it can be done as follows, from doGet() or doPost():

// If you want to use a relative path...
request.getRequestDispatcher(path).forward(request, response);
 
// Or, if you don't need a relative path and have a penchant for typing...
request.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(path).forward(request, response);
