Call your servlet from a form action="servlet/packagename.servletname" NOT
servlets/packagename.servletname unless you specifically defined any
additional servlet mappings in your server.xml under the conf directory
(http://<webbroot>/<weppapplication>/servlet is the default invoker). If
your servlet is not in a package, then call it with servlet/servletname...

Just a quick question - how do I map them in a deployment descriptor?
Where can I find either a HOW-TO, or some additional documentation?
Thanks.
