If you want an absolute answer, it's yes - you are wrong, at least if you're assuming that URL paths always correspond to file system paths. However, having said that, most apps are straightforward and do conform to the idea of one-to-one mapping of URL paths to directories. (For an example of one that doesn't, just look at Tomcat's manager app. As you click on various links in it, you'll see things like manager/html/list - but there's no such directory structure under server/webapps/manager; it's all done with servlet mappings in its WEB-INF/web.xml file.) The only real way to be _absolutely_ sure you have found everything is to go through the Tomcat and app configuration, and the source code of each app. (Painful, at best.) It's possible to discover direct file system references in an app that don't appear as links on any page. > As far as your comment about documentation, I am afraid > I have not come across any documentation detailing any > of the website design. Not at all surprising that it doesn't exist. It's tough when you inherit responsibilities. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
