I am speaking of resource names in the request URL. Granted in most cases there is a matching file name on disk, but that is irrelivant for this process.
The matching occurs on the URI and the decision to pass to Tomcat is made with out ever looking at the disk. for example: JkMount /weatherPage/* JkNotMount /weatherPage/images/* JkNotMount /weatherPage/*.html would yeild the following results Request Handled By Server -------------------------------------- ----------------- http://my.server/weatherPage/index.html apache http://my.server/weatherPage/textForcast tomcat http://my.server/weatherPage/images/sun.gif apache http://my.server/weatherPage/currentTemp.jpg tomcat http://my.server/weatherPage/images/cloud.jpg apache http://my.server/weatherPage/city/newyork.html apache http://my.server/weatherPage/city/current?city=newyork tomcat ps.
