jsp page triggering twice

[sde]

i have a System.out.print("test"); at the top of my page.

now when i trigger this page, "test" prints twice.

below that, i am doing many things, but not re-directing.

one thing i'm doing is setting cookies.. does setting cookies cause a page to reload?

it's not a visible reload, .. it is just server-side running the script twice.

it was in my javascript .. i had a text link and also the table row was linking on the onclick event. i've never had that happen with php though, it was weird.
