You may have to use JSTL in your page. JSTL provides a tag called "import" that has the capability to import contents from other site to your page. So you may built a page that looks like
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; %> <c:import url="http://shoppingcarthost:8080/shopping"/> When the user requests "webhost:8080/shopping" use the response.sendRedirect() to direct to his request to this new page. This page will in turn post a request to a new container on a different machine. Don't forget to include JSTL jar files into your container.

This webapp does not run on this machine, it's running on a totally separate system, so what I want to do is: when the context webhost:8080/shopping is requested the request is redirected to shoppingcarthost:8080/shopping. Is it possible to do this in the server.xml file, or does it have to be done somewhere else. I know how to do this with apache, but using apache is not an option in this case. I need to know how to to do this independent of apache. Just using Tomcat configuration files.
