Problems:
I'm trying to get the real file path to a "possibly" remapped jsp page
I.E. in web.xml -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>JSPTestMap</servlet-name>
<jsp-file>/Jaxp/JSPTransformExample.jsp</jsp-file>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>JSPTestMap</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Jaxp/MapExample.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
maps the request "/Jaxp/MapExample.jsp" to "/Jaxp/JSPTransformExample.jsp"
if I run your example on the following uri
http://localhost:8180/Jaxp/MapExample.jsp
I see
/var/tomcat4/webapps/Taglib/Taglib/Jaxp/MapExample.jsp
which is not what I'm looking for, I want to get back
/var/tomcat4/webapps/Taglib/Jaxp/JSPTransformExample.jsp
(This is because "application.getRealPath(...)" does nothing glorious
but append the the string you feed it onto the real path to the Context.
It may not neccessarily be a "Real" path.
