You should be able to create a directory to servlet mapping in your web server (usually in the web.xml file).
Something like: <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/MyServletDir</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <servlet> <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>MyPdfGeneratingServlet</servlet-class> </servlet> Then the browser can call www.myserver.com/MyServletDir/filename.pdf Your servlet can retrieve the filename requested from the HttpServletRequest (or just ignore it) and output it's response to the HttpServletResponse --- Paul Smith > Jim Urban wrote: > > So how do you use a url that ends with .pdf when using servlets? ******************************************************************* DISCLAIMER: The information contained in this email is confidential and is intended solely for the use of the named addressee.
