Do you mean .html and .jsp are not valid? That might make life interesting. It will be difficult to stop clients from accepting at least text/html in addition to application/xml. > I see in web.xml in the conf directory > <mime-mapping> > <extension>xml</extension> > <mime-type>application/xml</mime-type> > </mime-mapping> > Is this the right place to do it please? No - that would pretty much certainly break things. Also, AFAIK, that's only used for responses, so that the container can set the mime type properly for whatever resource is being returned. You probably need to do this in a filter that will see the request before your servlets do. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
