Apache can do this with mod_rewrite ONLY IF mod_cache is loaded. I�m not aware 
of any proxy capability in Tomcat.

Why would you want to use a Java Servlet Container to do proxying? It's like 
using a Space Shuttle to do door-to-door delivery. If you need proxying, use 
Squid or Apache.

If you want to have pieces of other sites inside your webapp, the it is a whole 
new ball game.
