Charles,

Thank you for your response.

This isn't the default application. It's an application called eXist. Here's a short description straight from the eXist web site:

"eXist is an Open Source native XML database featuring efficient, index-based XQuery <http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/> processing, automatic indexing, extensions for full-text search, XUpdate <http://www.smb-tec.com/xmldb/xupdate/index.html> support, XQuery update extensions <http://tortui.uvm.edu:8080/exist/update_ext.xml> and tight integration with existing XML development tools. The database implements the current XQuery 1.0 working drafts, with exception of the schema import and schema validation features defined as optional in the XQuery specification."

The default eXist welcome page is index.xml. The media librarian working on the project has created an index.xql which she would like to be the welcome page. The page itself works fine but we don't know how to make it execute, by default, instead of an index.xml or index.jsp, etc.

From: Kor Kiley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Switching default index page from xml to xql

I want to change the default index for my tomcat welcome
page from an index.xml file to an index.xql file.

Do you really mean index.jsp?  There is no index.xml in the default ROOT
webapp.  Also note the following comment in the default ROOT/index.jsp:

"NOTE:</b> This page is precompiled. If you change it, this page will
not change since it was compiled into a servlet at build time. (See
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml as to how it was mapped.)"
