You need to utilize mod_rewrite to rewrite the URL from the call to a
servlet in the zone (servletzone/MyGif.gif) to htdocs/images/MyGif.gif.
Utilizing wildcards, you can do it as a template so that ALL calls to
gifs get routed to a images folder. I can get you a copy of an example,
if you need it.
