The web.xml is docummented by the Servlet spec (version 2.2 for
Tomcat 3.3). It may be obtained here:
<http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html>
The apps-XXX.xml is documented in the User Guide under the
Adding and Customizing Contexts section. The online version
may be found at:
<http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-ug.html#context_addcust>
