[Opensource] Tomcat contexts and Register.do

[Mike Traum]

Yes, you do need the context there. I'm looking at 5.3RC6 and see:
<%@ include file="errorRow.inc" %>
        <form action="<%=contextPath%>/Register.do" method=POST>
<%@ include file="header.inc" %>

Does that not work properly?

thanks,
mike
