Without seeing the code in your JSP page that generates the URL you are posting to, there is no way to know what's really going on. However, a workaround that will make Tomcat forward the "extra slash" URL to your servlet anyway would be to change the URL pattern to "/SAWSServlet/*" instead. > Randy > Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
