Hi,
I don't know whether you can use the welcome-page tag is web.xml for
this. I had a workaround where my index.html calls a JavaScript function
(which redirects the user to the servlet) on body load. I am not sure.. but
check out meta "refresh" tag of html which can be used to reload the page
with different url (here to the servlet).
