Hello,

Let's consider situation like this:
We have got some servlets responsible for genereting galery page. We want group galery pages by use common part in uri (/galery/):
http://x.com/galery/galery_id/firstpage.html
http://x.com/galery/galery_id/secondpage.html

firstpage.html is generated by servlet1 , secondpage.html by servlet2.

So we must url-pattern like this: /galery/*/firstpage.html and /galery/*/secondpage.html but this url-pattern doesn't work.
question: why ? ( I use version 5.5.9 )

Some people, with I was talking about this, said that patterns like this was work with previously version and that version 5.5.9 is "crazy" ;]

I've got a vague recollection that some some such Tomcat-specific extension was proposed on the dev list. Can't remember if it was ever implemented (and to which version), and I'm much to lazy to look it up :). However, the 5.5.9 behavior is in strict compilance with the Servlet spec (and, hence anything but "crazy").
mhm, when some time ago I was reading Servlet spec, I noticed that.

Is any way to obtain behaviour like above with latest version ?

Simplest is with a Filter that does something like:
  RequestDispatcher rd = null;
  if(request.getRequestURI().endsWith("/firstpage.html") {
          rd = getServletContext().getNamedDispatcher("servlet1");
  } else if(request.getRequestURI().endsWith("/secondpage.html");
          rd = getServletContext().getNamedDispatcher("servlet2");
  }
  if(rd != null) {
         rd.forward(request, response);
  }
thx for example :)
I was thinking about somethings like this ... but my lazy force me to looking buildin solution :)

thx and greetings
flow
