<jsp:forward page="test.jsp" />

You are closing your tag with the />. This should be a compiler error though. But at least fix that and see if it solves your problem. (should be just a > )

Thanks for the reply .If i use
<jsp:forward page="test.jsp" >
it works fine now. But I had problems with this in Tomcat 3.2.3 , It worked only if i use it as
<jsp:forward page="test.jsp" />.
Any way It works fine now in 4.1.12.
Thanks for the response.
