Quick JSP question

Q_Ball

I have a webpage that has a login and a password. The user enters their username and password into a form which opens up a new jsp page that checks the login details. My question is how do i open up a page based on whether they have ented in the correct details? I have the following code :

// Iterate over the ResultSet
String user, pass;
boolean found = false;
user = request.getParameter("username");
pass = request.getParameter("password");

while  (rs.next()) {
         out.println("<TR>\n<TD> checking\n </TD>");
         if (rs.getString("loginName").equals(user)){
	out.println("<TR>\n<TD> found user\n </TD>");
	
             if (rs.getString("loginPassword").equals(pass)) {
	   out.println("<TR>\n<TD> found password\n </TD>");
	}//end if

         }//end if

} //end while

I've tested this code and while its not pretty it works. But i want it to open a menu page if the details are valid or return to the login page if the details are invalid. I have the seperate page for checking because i dont really know how to incorporate the checking in the login page.

Any ideas?

All the best,
