Hi,
If you're using a 2.3 containter, the best way to do this is to use a
filter. Something like this:
<filter>
<filter-name>controller</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.zapatec.filter.Controller</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>controller</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
You can then use your existing controller using the same mechanism as
you do for the rest of your project.
