I am doing it with error-page but that also sends a 404 I want zero clue they landed on a non-existent page There are certainly ways to achieve what you describe above. But I think that you should really question the basic logic of doing so. The 404 response is there for a reason : to stop clients from repeating requests for something that does not exist. If you hide that condition to the client, and return what appears to be a real content, then how can a client ever determine that what he requests does not exist, and react intelligently ? What is there to stop this client looping forever, and swamping your server with useless requests ? Imagine that the file system of your server would do the same : if some program tries to open a file which does not exist, the OS does not return an error, but opens some other file instead. Doesn't make sense, does it ? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

This sounds like you're doing it wrong. If you absolutely have to do it wrong, you could do this: 1. Write a Filter that sets a request attribute like request-okay 2. Map the Filter from #1 to *.jsp 3. Write another Filter that checks for the request-okay attribute and forwards to /index.jsp if it's not there. 4. Map the Filter from #3 to /* Make sure that Filter #1 runs before #3. I'm not sure why you'd bother with all this, though. - -chris -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJT2aTRAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYGnUP/i63RJXs5kMNqTZo2reBJ7Gt ShBTudJK6hAe7Hv7p+AUB4u4QImTsZT4zvVLUFIQ085K8eQ6REaXPw13+xvgdD8Z xlITa51UbvSkkGtzGH6Um/5BNjQEs4MFIzztez53yE5jRuRQ7L/v8AYwELbO6oqK ElNxBk+3cT7uFjLOInl33XqFDDuq5X2UR7X5hwiI5NfDBEvn4L6NCmBZ8yyCh/9Z GrEWAlzqYH+Dg4cvNowwsbjxqWVPnDgqd/+ZVisK9PGkxkopEIZ3vHLZlM56rFt0 9VebJ4xccWRC1s/2zNFjfQPQ3v2Krbv9WWNmgp/nO2NVJvSDrd3u6vFyBXZZ6e5A +0/hmIxRGVxaa5NV613ZdY2qOusUAfSXKbwDxj+f2/GkvnQVKwXR6KhP6m21HdJi QZX0wn8BtijUotUjThXWmlSgQrGFTp9TdggoGb46xalS2pAC3Uc2vcAlMR5myIkc gUiy+o8oRYyi+H3yB59z6Z23ZH1nBRQ5Scz1+cjDCI2ybZsnwIZoU1BakqgYo7aa 2CCszm/magTGiLhhe9WkBKVY1dg/hJDt08QQSoFDX0fxW7GAHr8/1SZDbvw1SHyE RAFnDsMB/AIvCrjIIOvHZD90OTG4vE8RF6YGWpgIbxuriOK9NMw1ggG5CzuwRQG5 tQQ37b1QMGNv/kLIULqJ =6jFH -END PGP SIGNATURE- - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
