Add content in Response object externally

I have a simple application which renders a jsp file into the browser after getting some data from a servlet.Now I want to add some data in the form of some HTML Tag into the response object coming out of the jsp.

I have made a filter and response wrapper which overrides the getWriter method by returning a custom PrintWriter as:

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
public PrintWriter getWriter() {
  return new PrintWriter(sw);
}

Now I am able to retrieve the string from this response object using getString function

public getString(){
   return sw.toString();
}

And I am able to add the content in the string using 

str.split("<tag where I have to add>");

But now I want to render this string into my Browser.

Will I have to create some other Wrapper object? Or please suggest any other way to achieve this.Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

You are overruling the existing writer of the response object. You should keep a reference to that one and in the end write the final/modified content to that writer.
