My English is not good. Please understand it.
I'm in charge of maintaining a website built with Spring, tiles and ibatis frameworks.
The problem is all gif, js, etc... go through DispatcherServlet because most of the address of static resources are like /home/images/hbg_01.gif. the resource path is mapped by homeServlet.
But I'd like my static resource to be ignored by any Dispatcher servlet written in Web.xml.
I am new to J2EE. so if it's lack of information. please leave comment. I will give you anything if needed
here's my web.xml
