Martin:
Try this:
ServletContext sc = getServletContext();
RequestDispatcher rd = sc.getRequestDispatcher("myValue.html");
rd.forward(request, response);

I just *know* this has to be an easy question, but my brain won't
cooperate
right now and give me the answer. It won't even come up with the
right query
for the archives. Apologies in advance...
Given a particular request with the appropriate parameters, my
servlet needs
to ship back the contents of a static HTML file that lives
underneath my
WEB-INF directory. In other words, given a request such as:
http://zaphod/myApp/myFunction?myParam=myValue
I might want to return the file:
..... \WEB-INF\myFunction\myValue.html
How do I do this?
It seems to me that I need to use RequestDispatcher.forward(), but I
haven't
been able to figure out the right way to invoke it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
