All of these details are covered in the servlet API which you can find from this Sun web site. Everybody seriously interested in programming servlets should have a copy.

Also Rimzim, bear in mind that your context does not have to be under the Tomcat webapps directory. It can be anywhere in your machine so long as it's got the correct directory structure. This is made possible by the fact that when you go to administration page of Tomcat, you can create new web apps (contexts) and tell Tomcat the path of the apps together with their docBase. The important part here is the docBase. Hope that helps.
