you can write a servlet filter for this. It will be easier that way.
mod_rewrite is one way of doing it , but if you are going to target only
your JSP I would recommend to go to the servlet filter way.
You could also use valves, but you can do almost the same things with
servlet filter.

Example of  class is:

public final class URLRewriteFilter implements Filter {

      // you have to implement this method
      public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse
response, FilterChain chain)
            throws IOException, ServletException {

            // you code goes here
            chain.doFilter(request, response);
    }
}

If you need help implementing it, just let me know.

Hi all;

currently I'm into deploying a small jsp/servlet based application which
more or less utilizes a dispatcher servlet to provide .jsp-based
content. For that, I'm into using URLs like

http://foobar:8080/Site?path=home/users

to, in example, show the site section "home -> users". For now, I'd like
to do URL rewriting in order to provide users with an URL like

http://foobar:8080/home/users or maybe
http://foobar:8080/Site/home/users


to see the same content. My initial idea was to use apache, mod_jk and
mod_rewrite to do right this, but don't feel too good about that idea
because sooner or later the site URL will also have to carry around a
session ID and in that I am afraid that URL rewriting will get me into
trouble. So, my question: What is the best way of doing URL rewriting in
such a situation? Does tomcat provide any ways of achieving what I want?

TIA and bye,
Kris
