The Servlet 2.2 (or 2.3) spec defines all the legal forms of
<servlet-mapping> patterns, and can be downloaded at:
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html
For your purposes, you will find that the "*.do" pattern does indeed match
all of the above. The corresponding action paths should be
"/charts/display", "/news/display", and "/events/outdoors/display".
