Hi Frank,
I am actually not able to open the web.xml file. when I try to open it through an editor like Edit Plus, it shows me squares and notext. By the way, i am able to see the contents of the web.xml file located under C:\tomcat\conf\web.xml where c:\tomcat is my TOMCAT_HOME
following is the file content of web.xml located under ..\conf\
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
