Answer / mahmood alam siddiqui
Forwrd :: when we invoke forward the request is sent to the
another resource on the server without the client being
inform that difference resource is going to process that
request.
SendRedirect :: when we invoke sendRedirect, It causes the
web container to return to the brouser that means new URL
should be requested.
SendRedirecr takes extra round trip
Forward is fater than sendRedirect

Using <jsp:forward> you can forward the request and
response object to the concern URL. Where as in
sendRedirect, it will not carry the request and response
object details.

Answer / manas banerjee
<jsp:forward>--a request object containing to the client
request is send to the destination page which may be
servlet/jsphtml page.
in case of sendRedirect http sends a temporary response to
the browser and browser creates a new request and it sends
to the targeted page.it destroys the session object

Answer / prasanth setty
When you want to preserve the current request/response
objects and transfer them to another resource WITHIN the
context, you must use <jsp:forword>
If you want to dispatch to resources OUTSIDE the context,
then you must use sendRedirect. In this case you won't be
sending the original request/response objects, but you will
be sending a header asking to the browser to issue a
request to the new URL.
