two things: 1) I sometimes use "telnet" as a "poor man's" protocol debugger. If you look at the http spec, you can determine exactly what you browser would have sent for a "GET" request. You can build a test case that doesn't require any cookies (ie no session requirements). You can use telnet from a unix box or win2k/xp to generate a browser request by something like:
$ telnet myserver.mydomain.com 8080 GET /myproject/myservlet HTTP/1.1<enter> Host: myserver.mydomain.com<enter> <enter> This will show you exactly what headers are added to your response. 2) You could write your own "file serving servlet". I did this for several projects that had a requirement to dynamically include static content files from outside the "ear" deployment directory structure. My servlet looks for an "init parm" to establish a "document root" and will look for files under the document root directory. It does not allow requests for directory patterns that are not to be served. (eg WEB-INF/*,META-INF/*, *.jsp, etc) I have it mapped to a uri something like /fs/*. In my jsps, I can use it via something like: <jsp:include flush="true" page="/fs/pageheader.html"></jsp:include> The point is that in you own file serving servlet, you can decide exactly what to add to the response object. -----Original Message----- From: Steffen Fiedler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2003 3:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problems with <jsp:include> My servlet engine is tomcat 4.0.3.
