Take a look at the servlet specification.
Basically you have to set up a context for your webapp. The web.xml file
describes your web-app. This means that you define your servlets and the
servlet-mapping (which urls will be mapped to which servlet) in web.xml
you could use something like this for your web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";>
<web-app>
<display-name>myapp</display-name>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>HelloIZ</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>HelloIZ</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloIZ</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/HelloIZExample</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
This means that the URL: /HelloIZExample will be mapped to the HelloIZ servlet
as defined in the <servlet> section.
