I would like to revisit this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org/msg38851.html
This should be a required feature. The current functionality is a BIG flaw in my eyes and obviously many other peoples for many reasons including: - it is not the standard way that apache behaves (nor any other server on the planet, i mean even look at the jakarta site or any non tomcat site for that matter) - gives a HUGE disadvantage to sites using tomcat for search crawlers and search engine rankings (this alone makes me want to try a different app server and if i didn't have the knowledge to change the DefaultServlet myself, I would definitely stop using tomcat because of this). - bookmarking I really don't see any advantage to doing it the way it is done now. And as for the welcome files being in a subdirectory, does that really actually happen??? And if it did, then they don't have to turn on the forwarding, just leave it as default. But please, please give us this option in the 4+ versions of Tomcat.
