Thanks. I thought it should be something stupid and obvious... Here we
are. Embrassing, but I guess I deserved that. Everything works now, I
after I put the resources outside the protected area. And from now on,
I will treat my browser with more respect, and I will give back its
cache and cookies.
Thanks again,
Alex

Subject: tomcat webapp FORM authentication problem
I have a very annoying problem with a secured folder
in my tomcat web application.
You could start the problem description by telling us the version of
Tomcat you're using. It's likely not pertinent for this particular
issue, but it's annoying to hide such information.
The problem #1 is: login.html displays a form BUT there
is NO images, NO CSS formatting, and Javascript!
Think about it: you've declared the resources noted as being
protected, authentication has not occurred, yet somehow you're
expecting Tomcat to magically ignore the protection settings when
the browser requests these resources? You can't have it both ways -
you need to place the resources the form needs outside of the
protected area.
The problem #2 is: after successful authentication the
browser shows the SOURCE of the first javascript referenced
in index.html, instead of index.html
Try fixing the first problem and see if the second one disappears.
The problems reoccur after cleaning the cash and cookies of
the browser.
You robbed your browser? Or did you clean out its cache?
