Let's see if this works... Since it's been a while since I sent the last
message, I'll paste the body:
Here's my take on a new default index.html along with the jakarta banner
since I've incorporated that in as well. I'd like it if all of the sample
apps retained a somewhat similar look and feel (volunteering if people agree
that it should be done). I tried this page under Opera and IE and it works
fine. I'm scared to try NS! =)
I'd really like the default apps to showcase Tomcat, and they've always been
kind of clunky. IIRC, some of the JSP/Servlet example links don't work
correctly. I'd also like the default homepage to brag about the features of
Tomcat to some degree, e.g. session persistence and whatnot, but I don't
know enough about these things yet...
Of course, by mentioning this I'm implicitly volunteering to do it ;)

<p><center><b>If you're seeing this page via a web browser, it means
you've setup Tomcat successfully. Congratulations!</b></center></p>
<p>As you may have guessed by now, this is the default Tomcat home page.
It can be found on the local filesystem at:
<blockquote>
<p class="code">$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.html</p>
</blockquote>
</p>
<p>where "$CATALINA_HOME" is the root of the Tomcat installation
directory. If you're seeing this page, and you don't think you should be, then either
you're either a user who has arrived at new installation of Tomcat, or you're an
administrator who hasn't got his/her setup quite right. Providing the latter is the
case, please refer to the <a href="docs">Tomcat Documentation</a> for more detailed
setup and administration information than is found in the INSTALL file.</p>
<p>Included with this release are a host of sample Servlets and JSPs (with
associated source code), extensive documentation (including the Servlet 2.3 and JSP
1.2 API JavaDoc), and an introductory guide to developing web applications.</p>
<p>Thanks for using Tomcat!</p>
