servlets saving state across debugging invocations: shouldn't

I just used it to send a card from wm@zat.com to wm@leler.com.
I retrieved the card successfully. Now I try to run netcard
again, and when I click on one of the six images, it tries to
go to the URL http://localhost/servlet/request?imgfile=bcard2.jpg
but I get the "Your card has been successfully sent" page,
rather than the page where you fill in your message.

If I close the capsule request.zac, then it works ok.
Apparently, when the capsule is open, it is saving some
state that it should not be saving, which keeps it from
executing a second time. It seems like this is a bug in
our servlet execution, not in the netcard example itself.

Servlets appear to be using the old capsule on repeated invocation.
We must change it so they reconstruct the capsule from new like
on a web server.
