Hi,
I have one servlet where I have called Thread.sleep(5000) in order to display the page for 5 seconds after that I have called sendredirect to a jsp page.
But the problem is that the redirect is working fine but the servlet is not being paused for 5 second.Please help.
Regards,
Arka

Note that you can't do both (display a page which essentially sending a response & redirect) at the same time in a servlet.

You'll need to do that with JavaScript on the client, or via an HTML meta tag.
