| from having to define a lot of house-keeping and container-specific elements |
| in their own <code class="filename">web.xml</code> files. For example, you can use it |
| to set up mime-type mappings and JSP servlet-mappings. Jetty applies |
| <code class="filename">webdefault.xml</code> to a web application |
| <span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span> the application's own |
| <code class="filename">WEB-INF/web.xml</code>, which means that it cannot override |
| values inside the webapp's <code class="filename">web.xml</code>. It uses the <a class="xref" href="jetty-xml-config.html" title="jetty.xml"><code class="filename">jetty.xml</code></a> syntax. Generally, it is convenient for all |
| webapps in a Jetty instance to share the same |
| <code class="filename">webdefault.xml</code> file. However, it is certainly possible |
| to provide differentiated <code class="filename"> webdefault.xml</code> files for |
| individual web applications.</p><p>The <code class="filename">webdefault.xml</code> file is located in <code class="filename"> |
