Description copied from class: AbstractHttpClientCallback

setLocation

public void setLocation(String location)

The location field as sent to the browser. If the value starts with a /, it is preceded by the context path of the current request. The default value is "/.magnolia". If you need to the current request location in an external login form, you can use the {0} tag: a value of "http://sso.mycompany.com/login/?backto={0}" will pass the current request url as the "backto" parameter to the location url.
