So if that is the case is there any way currently to have a static and dynamic content all under one directory path
/www/Features index.jsp front.jpg /www/Products index.jsp product1.html product2.html I guess one solution would be to make a /jsp directory and place all jsp content into that, then use the mod_webapp for that /jsp to direct to tomcat, but is there another way to divide between apache and tomcat? Perhaps using another connector besides mod_webapp?
