Ronald, I want to virtual host so the path /hello maps internally to /hostname/hello. I'm trying to do some sort of internal redirect WITHOUT having to put dummy/stub files in the main /WEBAPP folder which would then include the relevant virtual host file(s). So, this kind of cancels out Facelets or Shale/Clay for that very purpose. I've tried making another ViewHandler.createView(context, "hostname" + viewId) but that ALSO changes the submitted path to /hostname/whatever.jsf instead of retaining it as /whatever.jsf. Now, I'm thinking I can use the servletContextListener to put my own ExternalContext in there so when the JSP calls ExternalContext.dispatch(), I can override that method to invoke "/localhost/filename" since I won't have a generic "/filename" setup. I'm open to new ideas and suggestions. I wonder sometimes why I go for the complicated stuff when I program application services. *sigh* Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: "R.

Hi David, why you want to override - define your own in the web.xml ! <listener> <listener-class>myServletContextListener</listener-class> </listener> You have to implement the 'javax.servlet.ServletContextListener' - Interface with the following two methods : public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent e); public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent e); The same if want to listen for sessions. You have to additionally implement the 'javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionListener'-Interface with public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent e); public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent e); regards Ronald David G.
