Or is there some more complicated decision making that helps it decide which page to use or which bean to invoke?

  | The default View handler extension(indicated by ViewHandler.DEFAULT_SUFFIX) is .jsp. So any url that you have will get replaced with a .jsp and is looked for. If you want this to be changed, you can specify a javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX in your web.xml's init-param and give a suitable extension.

Thanks for these quick responses.

On the issue of URL's, are you saying that the .seam extension is simply an arbitrary choice, and that I could just as easily use .faces, .do or even .elvis, provided that my web.xml associates such pages with the FacesServlet?  Or would Seam be affected if .seam was not used?
