That's not enough. By default, the default servlet sends resources
starting from the webapp root, regardless of the mapping (and thus the
URL). So, when you map it to respond to /skins/, when the URL is
.com/skins/albatross, it will look not for /skins/albatross, but for
/albatross, because /skins/ is just for mapping.
Jetty allows to easily configure the starting point from the servlet
declaration, in web.xml, but Tomcat doesn't. Instead, it uses a servlet
context attribute, named "org.apache.catalina.alternateResources" for
alternate docbases. I don't know how to put this attribute in the
context before initializing it (as it is read only at init()). So, for
the moment, until we provide our own default servlet for retrieving
those resources, I can't help you any further. This is why I said that
this part must be configured in a container-dependent way.

That's good news.
I tried to take it further. So for Tomcat, it meant to me to add, in the
web.xml:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/skins</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
(on such for each subdirectory)
(and no servlet element with the corresponding name, it's inherited)
A single attempt was pretty catastrophic with me
(on 1.1)... was this
working for your Karim-Pierre ? Which version ?
It should work fine for 1.1, too.
What exactly failed? For the documentation entry, I think a good place
would be the FAQ
(there's only one of these, right?) and one should really just put a
pointer to the thread for now, I think.
But I do not get it fully...
http://ocms.activemath.org/bin/view/Main/WebHome
displays fine but
http://ocms.activemath.org/Main/WebHome
or http://ocms.activemath.org/WebHome
seem both to be styleless and the log displays
