John,

All you have to do in that case is specify the directory location. In the
example below I set a context of */chris* using the */chris* directory in
the webapps folder of my *${jetty.base}*:

<Configure id="chrisApp" class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
>   <Set name="contextPath">/chris</Set>
>   <Set name="war"><Property name="jetty.webapps" default="."/>/chris</Set>
> </Configure>


I will see what I can do about making the documentation more clear in this
regard.

Best,
Chris
