I think the 2.3 spec wants some sort of file to map to.
I did hear of one person who set the <welcome-file> to 'index.do' and put a dummy index.do file in there (with a note that it was a dummy and not to delete). The web container was happy because there was a file there called 'index.do'.
Since Struts is mapped to process *.do, the person defined an action called 'index' and struts could do its normal processing, forwarding off to the .jsp in /WEB-INF/.
I don't know if that is portable amongst containers though.

I'm using tiles and i know i can't set the <welcomefile/> attribute in web.xml to a tile definition or a struts action url. I'm also precompiling all my JSP's so i can't assign it to a JSP... i was thinking about assign it to a html file and then onLoad i could redirect to my logon action url... to do this i'd have to hard code the ipaddress and port number into my url so i don't really want to do that. Any ideas how i might do this?
