Well in fact we would like to use Tomcat 4.0 but our customers may want to use Bea Weblogic, ATG dynamo .. We don't want to force them to use a specific server. My question should be : is there a way in Tomcat 4.0 to make it behave as a servlet 2.2, jsp 1.1 server. I looked at web.xml and there is the path to the dtd which could be constraint to force the customer not to use filter (for example). But for my jsps can i make them specific to a JSP version. Since we are developping demos it could be great to port on any server the customer would like. Am i clear?
