Hi Chuck, Here is a link to an article that explains a couple different ways a subdomain cna be used. I am using the second one for directory or folder for images.
http://content.websitegear.com/article/about_subdomain.htm Since I do not use a WAR for static deployment (seems an overkill for me) I am not concerned about it. An admin asked my about wars which I thought to pose here. Thanks again for your very prompt reply. -Tony --- On Wed, 10/21/09, Caldarale, Charles R <chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> wrote: > From: Caldarale, Charles R <chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> > Subject: RE: Subdomains and Wars... > To: "Tomcat Users List" <users@tomcat.apache.org> > Date: Wednesday, October 21, 2009, 12:36 PM > > From: Tony Anecito [mailto:adanec...@yahoo.com] > > Subject: Subdomains and Wars... > > > > How would one associate the static content within a > WAR with a > > subdomain when using subdomains assigned to > directories? > > What do you mean by "subdomains assigned to > directories"?
