hehe, no problem. thats for helping me walk through it. there seems to be other issues with using the ROOT context, my template engine all of a sudden can't find the templates, but i'm not sure why. for the time being, i'm just going to go back to jserv i think. its a two line configuration for this there, and seeing as i'm not using any of the other tomcat stuff, it seems to make the most sense. i'm surprised that this is so difficult, it seems like a very convenient way of doing things, just have a file extension that gets processed, regardless of where it is. but i can't figure out it. i've asked some questions specifically in other email, we'll see if someone else can shed some light on things. cheers, -- CraigL->Thx(); Be Developer ID: 5852 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
