That was gnawing at the back of my mind a little bit. So how would you have an 
entry point servlet run at a simple address without consuming everything in 
that path? If the context is /hrsurvey and all the other servlets are mapped 
with that assumed as a prefix, can there not be anything mapped to /hrsurvey?

If I'm looking foolish here it's worth it. Under a lot of pressure to make 
something work that I've never looked at before. I appreciate the insight.

Actually, you have:

>       <servlet-mapping>
>           <servlet-name>HRSurveyLogin</servlet-name>
>           <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
>       </servlet-mapping>      

That will send everything to HRSurveyLogin, including anything it redirects or 
forwards.  (Can you say, "infinite loop"?)
