How to hide password in a url 
There is a JSP script for login to a Server. Currently user credentials are being accepted through HTTP Header and the login.jsp file is so designed that once the user provides credentials the user is redirected to a redirectURL which is a fully qualified URL containing Username and Password in query string and hence the user is able to access the page he wants but problem is the password is being visible in the browser address bar.

So, what are the ways by which I can hide the user password in the url.
