I'd like for a request to "<webapp>/en/Folder/File" to be sent to "<webapp>/Folder/File" but with a parameter 'lang' set to 'en'.
Likewise, a request to "<webapp>/fr/Folder/File" to be sent to "<webapp>/Folder/File" but with a parameter 'lang' set to 'fr'. Is this possible with Filters? If not, is there any way to accomplish this within Tomcat so that it works for any number of directories and subdirectories. The reason I want to do this is to avoid copying/pasting an entire sitemap to support a second language - I know that some people create a site in English then copy/paste the directory tree into another directory (eg. '/fr', '/de/', '/cn/') to support a second language but this is not scalable and difficult to maintain. How do you circumvent doing such things ? Other mechanisms I've looked at are Apache rewrite rules but they're very complicated and I'd also like to make this work independent of Apache, and preferably for all servlet engines.
