reset.

Abstract
After PQ69629, the request object is not being reset, when
it comes back from forwarded page to the forwarding page.
Download Description
USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere® Application Server users of servlets and JavaServer Pages™.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
WebSphere incorrectly returns Request Path Element values when returning
from a RequestDispatcher.forward() method call.
WebSphere does not reset the state of the HttpServletRequest object when
returning from a RequestDispatcher.forward() method call. This results in
incorrect return values for HttpServletRequest.getPathInfo(),
HttpServletRequest.getRequestURI() and HttpServletRequest.getServletPath()
upon returning control to the calling Servlet or JSP.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
Modified the handling of HttpServletRequest path elements to properly
handle the restoring of these elements when returning from a
RequestDispatcher.forward().
Note: WAS_Engine_02-07-2003_5.0.0_cumulative_Fix is required.
