I'm unsure what you're trying to do --
+ URLs should look "nice" and be bookmarkable in the style of REST e.g.
http://localhost/myapp/mylayout/someaction/
The approach I started to take was to use a servlet filter that
could take any request e.g. "myapp?foo=bar&color=red"
If you want "nice" URLs why would you ever provide something like
the one above? Why not "myapp/bar/red" ??
However, I noticed depending on the initial URL a user put in,
sometimes bad or unexpected things happened so I thought maybe using a
filter with a forward is very fragile code.
It's as robust as *you* make it :-)
If you're using pathInfo to break out your parameters and someone
inserts something extraneous, like "myapp/bar/oops/red" -- it's up to
you to recognize that and deal with it.
And yes, I for one use filters for this kind of thing all the time...
HTH!
