I believe this is correct. I think getServletPath() is supposed to return the part of the path that matched the mapping, and getPathInfo() returns the rest... Of course, it's been a while since I read through a servlet spec :-) This could also be 2 different interpretations of an ambiguous spec. Anyone know for sure? Regardless, the fact that this works differently in 2 different servlet containers says that you'll probably have to have a hack in your custom dispatcher to handle both. > > So would it be possible to add the following lines to > ServletDispatcher? > > if (actionPath.length()==0){ > actionPath = request.getPathInfo(); > servletPath = actionPath; > } > > Or is there another more elegant solution to this? > You're going to need a custom dispatcher to support this. The ServletDispatcher has been designed for mapping to an extension. That said, I think it might be good to provide another dispatcher for WW2 that uses everything up to the last "/" as the namespace, and the part after the last "/" as the action name.
