Hey all, I have figured out how to map files other than *.jsp to Tomcat. I
am trying to cause .rt (RealText files) to be created dynamically. They are
like xml files.
I created a .rt file that looks like this:
<window type="marquee" height="20" width="240" duration="00:42"
underline_hyperlinks="false" link="blue">
<font face="arial" color="green">
<%@ taglib uri="firstsong.tld" prefix="djmalloc" %>
<djmalloc:firstsong/>
</font>
</window>
When I load it I get the following error:
Error: 500
Location: /djmalloc/new.rt
Internal Servlet Error:
java.lang.InstantiationException: malloc.servlet.PageGetter

However, if I rename the exact same file with a .jsp extension, the page
appears correctly! Any thoughts?
