>My webapp is in the webapps directory. The login page is in:

>One directory deeper:
> webapps/myApplication/userPages
>contains all of the pages that the user will go to.
>So I do not want the user to see the myApplication directory, or the
>userPages directory. I now setting the StaticInterceptor suppress value to
>true, makes the directories unavailable, but I need to see a user page
>(specifically the login screen).
>Sorry to be so verbose.
>Again Any help is appreciated.
