Following is the Template Code
<% ...
// based on the condition I am trying to forward to another "Page"
// I tried the following sling forward:
<sling:forward path="/content/a/b" />
%>
I see the content of the page "/content/a/b" (included in the forward) . But CSS / JS is all broken on the page.
Is there a recommended way to forward the request to another Template ?
I had to find a workaround for my code :

I had to intercept the request before it start executing the request and then use <sling:forward>

Hi,
what do you mean with "CSS and JS are broken"?
kind regards,
Jörg
I dont see any JS / CSS that is declared at the header is getting loaded.

Can you please explain in more detail why you want to forward a template. Do you mean you want to change the template on which a page is based during run-time?
On Template 1 (content.jsp) I want to check if "PageA" exists on the content tree path :: "/content/mysite/en_us/PageA"
I am using Resource Resolver to check if Page exists , if exists I want to Forward the request to the Page Resource from JSP.
I tried couple of options from https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/sling-scripting-jsp-taglib.html about sling:forward .
My Template Structure is :
Template 1
|--- content.jsp // Wrote a logic here to FWD the request to existing resource and not execute any script on the JSP.
Reason I am doing this is , I want the URL to be the same but want to include the content (Could not include sling:include as page will be loaded with double header and footer) Both templates are different

Have you tried using this API to forward requests to another page:
https://sling.apache.org/apidocs/sling5/org/apache/sling/api/scripting/SlingScriptHelper.html
Yes I tried the Request Dispatcher and it did not work. However I see illigal state exception on logs. (Seems like Response is committed)
Still wondering if there is still a way to achieve this ?
