Finally found a solution in Apache Mailing list archive.
I wanted to set the expires tag for javascript files, css files and gifs.
I still do not know how to achieve this using tomcat alone.
But Yes If we are using apache along with tomcat, we can use mod_cache to achieve this.
Can anyone comment whether it is possible in tomcat alone or not.
Thanks in advance
