i'm trying to forward to another page after authentication. If i call the servlet with a form with an action to servlet: it works. But, when i call it with jquery funtion doesn't do anything. (the authentixùcation is correct, i checked it with debug and return the correct value of by user)
@WebServlet(name = "Controller", value = "/controller-servlet")
public class Controller extends HttpServlet {
public void init(ServletConfig conf) throws ServletException {
super.init(conf);
}
public void destroy() {
}
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException, ServletException {
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
ServletContext ctx = getServletContext();
RequestDispatcher rd = ctx.getNamedDispatcher("ValidateServlet");
rd.include(request,response);
HttpSession s = request.getSession();
String role = (String) s.getAttribute("Ruolo");
if(role.equals("Studente")){
rd = ctx.getRequestDispatcher("/student.html");
}else if(role.equals("Docente")){
rd = ctx.getRequestDispatcher("/docente.html");
}
else{
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("NOT IN DB");
}
rd.forward(request, response);
}
}
