First of all welcome files should be exactly that. Files. They should not include paths. There is no guarantee that 'faces/index.html' is going to work as you think it will and some containers may reject the configuration as invalid. That Tomcat lets you get away with this is fortunate and - now that I know about it - likely to change in future releases. You seem to be confusing reading the static resource from the file system and reading the request body. The request body is the data sent by the client with the HTTP request. The static resource (index.xhtml) is read from the file system. I assume that FacesServlet has its own static resource handling and that a request for /faces/index.xhtml is expected to return the content listed for index.html below. The FacesServlet will open an input stream but not to the request body. It will open one for the static resource on the file system. It will then copy those bytes to the response output stream. At no point will it attempt to read the request body (unless it is a POST request with parameters). If you want to modify the response body then you need to wrap the response and provide Writer and OutputStream implementations that make the modifications you require. The simplest way is to buffer the entire response body and then edit it but that can get expensive in terms of memory. It will be more efficient to use fixed buffer but then more complex to ensure your desired edits take place.
