Craig,
I made the mistake of giving
"/musicshop/servlet/ShoppingServlet/MainJSP.do", instead
of "/musicshop/MainJSP.do". Now, I get "/MainJSP.do" from getServletPath(),
and after truncating ".do", I get what I was looking for.
Is there any way of getting "/MainJSP.do" from
"/musicshop/servlet/ShoppingServlet/MainJSP.do"? In that case,
I don't have to do servlet mapping in web.xml of the applicaiton.
Thanks,
Sanjay
