OK. I am just trying to find out if there is a way, using TC to do what I wish. I currently use virtual directories and apache to serve "saved files" that my webapp copies to a specified location. I am considering using CSS in my html files now, and would like to allow users to modify those css files in a format they wish. But of course once they do that, any future updates would over right the modified css files.

What you're trying to do is somewhat in conflict with the intent of the servlet spec, which allows deployment of webapps on devices that don't even have file systems. Also, if your app is deployed on a Tomcat instance where unpacking WARs is disabled, it will fail. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
