html base tag

[Travis Stevens]

I have been using the struts html base tag.  Unfortunately, our new 
staging machine is done with a proxy pass.  This means that the URL 
being sent to the box in which the tomcat is located is changed and the 
base is then wrong.

For example:
www.outside_firewall.com/tomcat
is proxy passed to
www.inside_firewall.com/tomcat
which means when the page returns to the client, the base tag is
<base href="www.inside_firewall.com/tomcat">
Currently the base tag determines the server via the following
1. Passed as parameter?
2. request.getServer()
I would like to add another step
1. Passed as parameter?
2. An init parameter in the ServletContext instance?
3. request.getServer()
In order to do this, I will add a field to Global entitled SERVER with 
value "server" which can be configured in web.xml.  I will then access 
that variable via the ServletContext in the BaseTag class.

Does this sound feasible?  Any other ideas?  Is this something I should 
submit to be added to struts?
