First of all please put your code inside code tags. Now coming to your problem, I guess you must have stored the user credentials in scoped variable. When the logout event occurs removed the values from these scoped variables, and in this page check the value of those scoped variables, if that's null redirect to login page.

Have you checked what output does gives on console from your welcome.jsp?? It must b null.

It is not recommended that you should use Scriplets and java code in your JSP. Use Servlets to set session values and the forward it to JSP.

What do you think a line like "alert(window.location = "validate")" accomplishes? Where did you get the idea that it might do something useful?

the code "alert(window.location = "validate")" is working...I have checked it..The problem is that i could not retrieve attribute which i set using session.setAttribute() method and it returns me null..

what do you think will this code:



execute after an "else" condition??

And you are setting a session attribute named "user" in your servlet and in welcome.jsp page you are getting it back by "UserName"??

What are you trying to achieve with the above code? I guess the submit request goes to validate servlet not welcome.jsp. So what do you expect request.getParameter("login") to return in this page? Moreover you are already setting username in session in validate servlet. So your jsp should just retrieve the value and print i.e.
