Hello List, We're developing a struts application, and marketing wants to have the following friendly urls for retrieving product information:
http://music.yamaha.com/PSR-1000 http://music.yamaha.com/CFS60 They are not happy with http://music.yamaha.com/products/PSR-1000 nor any .do (or other extension), and not with any query strings (ie. showProduct?modelName=PSR-1000). Fair enough, technology should support business wishes. We have researched struts, the JSP spec, and support for URL conventions and have found the following information: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/configuration.html The above explains that you really need either a .do or /do/ in order to envoke the action controller. However, the following link explains that "The default servlet is the servlet which serves static resources as well as serves the directory listings (if directory listings are enabled)." http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/default-servlet.html I have two questions then regarding the "The default servlet": -1- Will it allow us to use http://music.yamaha.com/PSR-1000 urls? (it seems it will) -2- Can the default servlet be configured to be a struts action controller? Many Thx, Eric Dahnke --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
