First Claim
1. A method for managing redirection, said method comprising:
- using, by at least one processor of a computer system, a first servlet of a first website to redirect a browser to a second website for authentication of a user, wherein the first website comprises the first servlet having a first Universal Resource Locator (URL), a second servlet having a second URL, and a third servlet having a third URL;
after said using the first servlet of the first website to redirect the browser to the second website, and after the second website has authenticated the user based on a username of the user and password received by the second website from the user in response to the browser having been redirected to the second website, and after the second website has redirected the browser to the third servlet in response to which a determination is made that the second URL is different from the third URL, said at least one processor receiving at the third servlet an authentication key from the second website; and

Abstract
A method and system for managing redirection for use with a system. The system includes a first webpage and a second webpage. The first webpage is operable to redirect a browser to the second webpage and subsequently, the second webpage is operable to redirect the browser to the first webpage by using a first pre-determined identifier associated with the first webpage. A second identifier associated with a component of the first webpage is assigned. In response to the second webpage redirecting the browser to the first webpage by using the first pre-determined identifier, the first pre-determined identifier is compared against the second identifier to determine whether the second identifier is different from the first pre-determined identifier. In response to a determination that the second identifier is different from the first pre-determined identifier, the browser is redirected to the component of the first webpage by using the second identifier.
