Allow JSP to use HTTPS

Question

Hello,
I have an application built up using 20-25 JSP pages. I have no beans, its just a very basic and simple application using only JSPs.
Out of these JSPs, I want 2 JSPs to be called over the HTTPS protocol in place of HTTP.
Can anybody tell me how to do that. All my JSPs are in the same directory on the webserver and to call a JSP, on the click of SUBMIT, I am just specifying the name of JSP to be called. In other words, I am not hard coding the URL, PORT and the Context-root anywhere.
Please post your valuable inputs.
Thanks

Hello again,
I found one more solution to the HTTPS problem.
Seems like now we can do it in two ways, first way is described in this forum, and the second way is to add this to the web.xml:
<security-constraint>
     <web-resource-collection>
          <web-resource-name>Automatic SSL Forwarding</web-resource-name>
          <url-pattern>name of jsp</url-pattern>
     </web-resource-collection>
     <user-data-constraint>
          <transport-guarantee>
               CONFIDENTIAL
          </transport-guarantee>
     </user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>
I used this technique, the URL is formed correct now (the URL contains https in place of http), but when I try to go the page, it gives me:
Method Not Allowed
An error has occurred
Anybody here have any idea why i am getting this?? I tried to switch the methods also: post/get and viceversa, the problem still exists.
Pls post ur feedback
thanks
