<body>
In my situation I have a contextPath which points to
$CATALINA_BASE\webapps\WebAppName (so this href tag will display
AutoCompleteServlet.java.txt)
<a
href="${contextPath}/src/org/ajaxtags/demo/servlet/AutocompleteServlet.java.txt">Java
source</a>
I could have just as easily setup to point to a local file in Unix such as
<a href="file:///user/martin/index.html">Index.html</a>
or to point to a local file on a windows box
<a href="file://C:\\user\\martin\\index.html">Index.html</a>
</body>

In case I didn't make it clear before, the idea is to create a copy of
the default servlet specifically for your webapp. This renamed copy
will allow access to and listings of the directory specified in its
<url-pattern>, and nothing else. The normal default servlet would
continue to supply static content for all other paths, without exposing
their directory structure.
