I've been meaning to get around to that one.

And since the way DefaultServlet handles welcome-files is now forbidden in the spec we might as well get rid of the processing. > > -Tim > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >
