Retraction! I should have said, "Apache is faster at serving static resources than the Tomcat/connector/Apache combination." I've never tested Tomcat alone vs. Apache alone-- Apache was in place here before I started writing webapps. What I have done is looked at having Apache serve images directly rather than placing them underneath each webapp. I use a lot of the same images across webapps, and I prefer to let Tomcat handle the dynamic content while putting images, css files, and javascript files [what I referred to as static resources] under Apache's root. It's the same mindset as using plain-old-HTML tags in a Struts webapp. If there's no dynamic content, why bother to involve a taglib? -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
