Thanks for all the help everyone. The problem is solved.
Having my servlet mapped to "/" pattern was the problem. I changed the pattern for my servlet and added the entry in the welcome-file-list and the static resources show up and the page waits for the user response even with a gif image in the page.
Once again, thanks for all the help to all you guys who made valuable suggestions.
Thanks...Ram

And having your servlet mapped to "/" is most likely the problem.
The default servlet is the one that Tomcat uses to serve up static
resources. So either change your servlet to handle static resources or (way
better option), map your servlet to a pattern other than "/", and then
change your web form accordingly.
Yes, If you don't want to have to type the name of the servlet-mapping
in the URL, create a welcome file listing with the same name as your url-pattern. (Servlet Spec 2.4 and up)
<servlet> <servlet-name>bizDispatcher</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.client.BizDispatcher</servlet-class> </servlet>
<servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>bizDispatcher</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/bizDispatcher</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping>
<welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>bizDispatcher</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list>
