Web Cache 10g Strange Port Redirection

Question

Hi,
I have installed Oracle AS 10g 10.1.2 at one server (Solaris 9).
1) Oracle Apache Server is listenning port 81 and specific IP. No apache virtual hosts are configured at this port. In httpd.conf i have these directives:
Port 81
Listen xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:81
2) Web Cache is listenning port 80 and the same IP as Apache Server.
3) In Web Cache, I've added one origin server with 81 port and HTTP protocol (host and port of Apache server, from item 1).
4) Сreated new named site at port 80, which was mapped to Origin server created item 2.
My application is deployed to url /myapp, and after configuring Web Cache as described, I could access it by typing:
http://<host>/myapp
But when click to any link in my app, my browser is redirected to URL with specific port
http://<host>:81/myapp
Where :81 is Apache Server port from "Port" directive in httpd.conf. If I change "Port" directive to different value, for example 80, browser is redirected to http://<host>:0/myapp
Could, you help me? I need no port in my URL at all (port 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS).

Hi
I have one named sites definitions, it is also default named site.
Host name is <My Host>
Port is 80 (It is that port, which WEB cache is listening)
Prefix field is empty.
Origin server is <My host>:81 (Actually it is my apache virtual host)
As I've written all navigation in my application is performed over one servlet, which recieves request by method post, and uses sendRedirect method to redirect user reuqests (sending http header to browser):
response.sendRedirect(url);
If I change code, and servlet uses server side redirection request.getRequestDispatcher(url).forward(request, response);
App is redirected to WEB Cache (Named Site) port. All navigation works fine with WEB Cache or without it.
But this method doesn't suites for my application. Because if user press refresh button, browser asks to repost the data.
