Hi,

I understand that index.jsp is the default home page in a web application. Until now if I have a home page like mypage.jsp, I've been changing the welcome in web.xml.

QUESTION: How can I add a link to index.jsp so that without changing anything in web.xml, I can just add a link to index.jsp and when one types http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld it takes to mypage.jsp.

Thanks
Ricky

<jsp:forward page="mypage.jsp" />
(the path is relative to index.jsp)
