Yes, I know you can make many mappings to a given servlet/jsp, but that's not what I'm asking for. When an HTTP client requests /playoffs/gameScores.htm, I'm hoping there's some slight-of-hand trick/feature that will cause Tomcat to serve /teams/gameScores.htm WITHOUT a redirect so that it

There is nothing in tomcat which out of the box can do this. But there are many 3rd party filters (or 3 liners which are easy to write) which can do this. -Tim Rob Hunt wrote: Yes, I know that an internal forward would work. I just didn't want to code/test/debug it. Yes, I'm being very
