Figures. Then I suppose you could have an index.jsp and deny all other .jsps... Or maybe have the index page do a redirect to the index.do. Maybe not as clean or elegant, but would work.

I don“t know about the spec, but at least Tomcat *does not* accept this solution. I haven“t tried with a servlet, but an action doesn“t work. Maybe because the name of the tag in web.xml is welcome-file-list, it“s must be either a tag that accepts only files or a semantic problem in the spec.
