I don't think this is possible directly, with the way extensions are
handled (I think the extension has to be in the last segement of the
URL path). You should check out the spec on this point, it's not too
hard to deciper.
As someone else suggested, you might be able to use the query string
to do this.
In addition, you might be able to use a servlet-mapping to do this.
The key point to note is that you can use a servlet-mapping to link a
url-pattern to a jsp-file instead of a servlet-name. So if you have a
servlet-mapping like:
<servlet-mapping>
<jsp-file>mypage.jsp</jsp-file>
<url-pattern>mypagejsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
You could use a URL like:
http://server/application/mypagejsp/extra/path/info
(Warning: The above is totally untested and will likely need to be
hashed out to get working.)
