Yes WAR files are same thing as JAR files with different extensions.  However,
semanticly they are different.  The Java Servlet 2.2 specification details the
directory structure inside the WAR file and what types of files go where.  I
highly suggest reading the Servlet 2.2 Specification (which you can find here:
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html ).  It is a surprisingly easy
and interesting spec document.
