Posting request to other domain using jsp

I have a requirement to POST a request to other domain.

Actually i have a page x.jsp and domain called www.mydomain.com/test.jsp

I have two parameters in x.jsp that needs to be passed to test.jsp in mydomain.com.

i tried using <jsp:forward> to POST this request. It was not possible.

Please let me know if there is any other way to POST the request from one domain to other (cross domain) using JSP/Servlets.

Thanks in advance

You can use HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect() method.

Thanks for reply.

But can i store request parameters and send to other domain using using POST method

Also, my test.jsp in other domain should use these request parameters

I am not sure if this method can point to different domain. But you can try it.. and let me also know about it

Method of ServletContext interface:

ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String path)

@OP

Isn't that what Web Services are for?

An HTML form can be submitted to any target URL you like; it does not care to which domain the form's action attribute points.

But can i store request parameters and send to other domain using using POST method

Also, my test.jsp in other domain should use these request parameters

sendRedirect() method takes String argument. You can append parameters to this string and then pass this to sendRedirect method
Your string then will be something like ..

You can append parameters to this string and then pass this to sendRedirect method

Yes, i can pass, then it would be passing parameters through query string. Then it is using GET method, right.

I have a requirement that these parameters should not be visible while passing because these are secure parameters

Assuming that the web page is served from server A, do you want the flow to be: client -> server A -> server B, or do you want the flow to be: client -> server B? If the former, should the response come from server A or from server B?

Initially the client would access server A-here all the information will be populated in request and this request should be POSTED to server B for further processing. Server B is a third party domain which would validate the information and they would take care of rest of the updates which i would not have the control.

So the response should come from server B? That's possible only if you use a client-side redirect - which is a GET, and thus all parameters are visible.

Server A could make web service call to server B to send all the data, and then send a client-side redirect to server B to the browser with nothing but a cryptologically secure ID as parameter (so that server B knows which data to access for this client).
