Hi,

>From what you say now, I see that my former answer was inaccurate. You could
use :

<web-app>
        <servlet>
                <servlet-name>HOME</servlet-name>
                <servlet-class>org.mytestingservlet.Home</servlet-class>
        </servlet>
        <welcome-file-list>
                <welcome-file>home/</welcome-file>
        </welcome-file-list>
        <servlet-mapping>
                <servlet-name>
                        HOME
                </servlet-name>
                <url-pattern>
                        /home/
                </url-pattern>
        </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

So that your welcome file is the home directory. This directory is mapped to
the HOME servlet, but you can still acess the home directory content.

Thanks for the reply.

I want to have a welcome servlet, not a welcome html
or jsp file.  This is what I have at the moment with a
redirect to the servlet I want in it.  But it looks
messy.

Cheers
