I know how to do this.  The question is how to populate the information in
the request variable so that it can be used via <%=%>.  I was thinking to
configure this through the MessageResources, but I'm having second thoughts
since that really is supposed to be used for locale specific information.

Is there away to toss a couple of extra parameters into the action mapping
in servlets-config.xml?  I don't want to use the forwards since this is
really an abuse of what the forwards are for ...

No unfortunately not, because these pages are on a seperate server dedicated
for tech support (don't ask me why this is necessary!).  I think I'll just
stick to my idea of using the Action to modify the url based on a server
parameter set through tomcat.

Anyways, if anybody could provide some ideas on whether or not it is a good
idea to use message resources for URL's instead of strictly locale specific
info let me know.

Thanks again,
