No, Martin. I believe this is not exactly true.
- There is no https involved in this discussion. We're talking http on
port 443.
- This case involves having a directory name at the end of the path, and
excluding the trailing slash which results in a 302 from the server.

I was definitely not experiencing a 302 or automatic
refresh/resubmit.
Actually, you are, regardless of browser. Crank up

Note that this problem only happens with port 443. With any other
port, IE6 correctly redirects on the same port. Port 443 is usually
used for HTTPS - for some reason IE6 thinks it should redirect to port
80 in this special case. So, if you're able to use a port other than
443 the missing-/ URLs
Nice observation, champ!
I still don't understand why Tomcat feels the need to send the 302
resubmit request when in fact it knows exactly what the browser's
request is.

It's not just Tomcat, every web server does that (from what I've
seen). I would guess it's required by the HTTP spec.
