The HTML form is actually in a static page, I'm not generating the form via a servlet.
I've actually began this with a relative URL, I've just been trying different things to see if I could figure out how to get this to work. I agree with your comments regarding the portability, I've just been trying anything now to get this to work... With that being said and having shown you my web.xml et cetera, can you see what I am doing wrong?

It's poor design that limits your portability and presents a possible problem if your server configuration doesn't match your hard-coded value. For example, if could be that Tomcat is deploying your webapp at a different path, then you would get a 404...
