java web application (text fields) NEED HELP!

here is what i have to do:

1. create a jsp with two text fields that take numbers only. DONE.

2. Validate the fields, if any of the field's data invalid, goto a error jsp display a message and a button or link that will lead back to the first jsp with only the valid data remaining in the field and empty the invalid field.

How do i do the last part of No.2? i use filter to validate the fields, but i just don't know how to go back to the first jsp with the valid data remaining in the field.

thanks for your time and help!

    it's not too difficult all the thing you should do :

    first you submit your text fields values to a jsp or servelet for processing the validation and at there you do like this:
    ...
    String x = request.getParameter("textField1");
    String y = request.getParameter("textField2");
    ....
    //doinig your validating
    ....
    //we assume x is correct and y is not
    if(x is valid)
    request.setAttribute("myValidField",x);
    ...
    RequestDispatcher dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("/yourFirstJSP page");
    dispatcher.forward()
    ....
    //and in your first jsp do like this
    ">
    ....
    it is done!
    I've already checked this.
