Just to make sure I understand the web.xml config better and to make sure I do the right thing in the future when I have to add additional servlets or such:
* servlet name tag in the servlet tag and servlet-mapping tag should
be the same.
* The value of the url-pattern, welcome-file and the action value in
the form tag should be all the same
* I should have one set of servlet, servlet-mapping and welcome file
for every servlet I use
* I should never use "/" as a pattern because that is what Tomcat
uses for static resources.
* Can I have a url-pattern /foobar/foo2bar?Please correct me if any of the above is wrong.
Thanks...Ram -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you map your servlet to this: <url-pattern>/foobar</url-pattern>
then your form should say : <form method="POST" action="foobar">
(I just didn't want anyone to think that you invoke a servlet by calling it's class name).
so in fact, you want bizDispathcer (no capital b).
