Thank you PeterJ. I will try this option and try to decide between this solution and just copying the folder witht he static content into the ROOT context. I now have acouple of laterntaives to try. The solution that you describe proabbly allows greater flexibility and I will have to weigh the extra functionality against redoing the established protocols of the team. Thank you again. PS: I hope that JBoss 5.0.1.GA will let us define static context with greater ease; without having to al ter the profile. Perhaps, such flexibility can be added to the deployers folder.
