I don't think that's in the spec, so you might want to put a comment in your web.xml pointing out that the mapping might be Tomcat-specific. You'll save yourself (or someone else) a lot of headache in the future with that simple comment. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkwv8iQACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAZbACfYXCGM/cybZnFAanvjr3eMhVl WeEAn3Q3z12dsOd5N3IqJTCU9hs+QTyP =8CwB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
