Question concerning login.jsp

Scott,

Thanks, that was the ticket.  Here is the solution to our problem

In the login.jsp we included this javascript

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var temp = "<%=request.getAttribute("actionUrl")%>";
if (screen.width <= 700) {
window.location = "https://vushib-idp-test.vanderbilt.edu/idp/login-mobile.jsp?actionUrl="+temp;

}
//-->
</script>

In the login-mobile.jsp

        <% if(request.getParameter("actionUrl") != null){ %>
                    <form action="<%=request.getParameter("actionUrl")%>" method="post">
                <% }else{ %>
                    <form action="j_security_check" method="post">
                <% } %>

It seems to be working now.

Thanks again,
Lee Brewer
