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.

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 appears to the client that they're getting /playoffs/gameScores.htm.

Linking/forwarding GET requests using Default servlet or other Tomcat feature
I'm running a stand-alone (no Apache front-end) TC 5.0.19 server on a WinXP box. I have a webapp that has a /teams directory that contains gameScores.htm, teamStandings.htm and scoreForm.htm. I also have a /playoffs directory (can you tell this is a sports-related site?) directory that has the **exact same files**. Now, I'd like to keep a single copy of the 3 files in one directory and have some s in web.xml that would "forward" the request from /playoffs to /teams **WITHOUT** the HTTP client being aware of a 'redirect.' That is, I don't want to issue an HTTP redirect, and WinXP doesn't have file linking like Unix. Is there some hook in the Default servlet (or other TC-supplied class) that would allow one to do something like the following: playoffs ...DefaultServlet (or whatever) FORWARD /teams playoffs /playoffs/* The idea is I'm being very lazy and hoping that there is a feature in the default servlet (or other TC-supplied filter/class) that will allow this without me having to write same. (Of, if someone has some code they'd like to share...) Thanks.
