Tony,
I may have a simpler solution for you. Try adding the following to your
web.xml (it works with struts + jetty, it may just work for your servlet
container + web framework):
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/static/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
This makes the default servlet serve up everything under the path /static/.
If it is a page ending in .html then it will be properly decorated as your
/WEB-INF/decorators.xml should be configured to pick it up.
If you have myFaces, then the web framework is JSF. Not one I know I'm
afraid (I am an unabashed Struts/Spring MVC fan ;-)

Michael,
I read the post and I'm a little fuzzy about what goes where and what does
what. So, let's say that I don't care about renaming the files to *.html
because we can use *.htm, is there something specific in the post that is
going to get the decoration stuff done correctly so that the header.jsp is
applied completely so that the links appear as well as the logo?
