Bummer, Even with two namespaces, "/" and "/images" it still wants to run the image file, "/images/logo.gif", as an action under the "/images" namespace, it complains that there is no action mapped....
I also tried a single namespace for "/" and got the same error. So, I think this is a bug... one that probably will not occur very often, because I am not using struts in a "normal" way, but it does not provide the functionality that I need. There should be a way to specify URLs and files that are NOT actions, at least when using a blank extension. I absolutely need blank extension... I hate extensions! and no one will know what extension to goto to start the page.... the default page should be www.example.com, which is usually a static page, but I don't want a static page... I want to use some type of action. Sure I could do a redirect.... yuck! One more thing to try.... separate projects.... OK, when I create a separate project "/images" and change the URL in the JSP file to the absolute path "/images/logo.gif" ... it works! This is a separate project, not a namespace or anything within the defined project!!!! This is a HACK, but I can live with it for now! I still think it is a bug that empty extensions cause regular files to cease to work. Phil
