how to redirect to a URL returned from a service.

In my EDI stuff, one of my suppliers uses services.
I just added the code to send them a xml file via http.
If it goes well they respond with a URL for the client saying its all good, or recommending products that might replace products not available, so they can fix up their order.
I am using widgets to call a java service that calls their service.
I get back a httpresponse that will either have error or url.
I was not sure how to get to the URL.
I know in java you can redireect, as I do this in my auth stuff.
Is that the best way? I did a out param with a url, but not sure I need it, or if there is a better technique compared to the java redirect?

Hi Joel,

Not sure if I entirely understood the case but In such case you can go with
a java event instead of service as you can deal with request and response
there.

Thanks,

I can try that. Thank you.
I thought if I got the response from the context I could sendredirect, but no luck.
I will try using an event type where they are passed in.
appreciate the idea.

That worked great! Thanks again for the idea.
I kind of thought of trying it, but figured if I could get the response it would work in the service, but it worked fine as a event.
