Hi all,

I was trying to find the physical path of a file which was kept on a Unix
box from a servlet.

I searched through the archives and tried the solutions..
I finally found one which worked , which was using the
ServletContext.getRealPath()

however, I'm wondering why didn't the follwing work?
 request.getPathInfo()
 request.getPathTranslated()

I get null returned on both instances.
Could someone explain why please?
(I'm using apache and Jserv on a Unix box)

thanks in advance,
tania
