I've set up Tomcat so that a request to <anyfile>.html gets redirected to a servlet (Thanks, Adrian Janssen!). What I haven't been able to figure out, after looking at the Javadoc for javax.servlet.ServletContext, javax.servlet.ServletRequest, and others, is how to I determine what file was originally requested?
My situation is that I have a bunch of HTML files that have had their content moved into a database. The key for each record is the filename for the HTML document. I want to poll the database for a file's record and return it from the central servlet on Tomcat. So, if someone enters the URL http://hostname/file33.html, and this request gets redirected to my servlet, how can my servlet find out that it was file33.html that was requested, and not file34.html? I'm sure that the file that was requested must be in the request object passed from the browser to the server, but I can't figure out how to access it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -David Castro email[at]davidcastro[dot]com http://jsp.davidcastro.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
