It is used in JSP /Struts applications, usually to point to action servlets,
which somewhat compare to code-behind files in DotNet.

It's a JSP site. See my earlier answer.

At my work, we are porting to Java / Struts from PHP for our Application
Development.

Follow the link the link I provided, but prepare yourself. It's a typical
*nix, Open Sores, uber-nerd type of site that assumes you should already
know everything about the subject first.

BTW - DotNet kicks Java / Struts butt!

Web pages can have any file extensions, as long as the host / server support the choice.

Uh, yeah, I know that. I'm 100% sure that is not the case in this instance.

The "do" extension is a somewhat standard extension, used in the Java /
Struts MVC arhitecture, and defined in a config file that points to a
handler for the action taken by the user. The web pages don't actually have
a "do" extension.

Have you done any Java / Struts MVC research?
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/guid...prise_applications_2e/web-tier/web-tier5.html

I realy like MS products and technologies, but realistically, they are not
the only game in town, so being a one-trick-pony isn't the shrewdest
strategy towards ensuring a broad competency in web related technologies.

Yeah, but there is no actual page named index.do - Trust me, I'm with the
Government, and I'm here to help - No, not really.

If you are really interested, and follow the links I provided, it should be
become as clear as mud :>).

As I said, the assumption in these type of sites is that you already know
everything. The only reason I have have a grasp is because of the tried and
true method of screwing it up enough times before it actually works. That
and having an ubernerd at my disposal :>).

Typical Open Sores stuff - you are either a genius or an idiot until you
unwind the convoluted mess that masks the underlying simplicity of the
architecture - And then you're probably still an idiot. I don't know why it
is, but every Open Sores application I've had to deal with has been a royal
PIA.

Not a direct reply to you, Crash, but a response to some of the attitudes
displayed in this thread....

For example - "You can apply any extension you wish to a web page" (GEEZ! No
sh*t Sherlock - I guess that must be it. Case closed), implying that my
explanation of the facts was invalid and there is no other possible
explanation for a "do" extension.

I'm certainly no *nix or Open Sores advocate. In fact, if MS acheived the
legendary WORLD DOMINATION you often hear about, I'd be happy as a clam.

But, the mocking responses to Crash's question, and the failure to recognize
that there are, in fact, other competing technologies is disturbing.
Particularly with Microsoft's browser now nearing 4 years in age -- and
increasingly becoming the browser to work around - , and IIS and every
Windows OS being suspect it's surprising that so-called professionals are so
narrow minded and/or ignorant.

The reality is that people, not just techie types, are really growing weary
of the unending patches, updates and fixes that are neccessary to simply do
day-to-day computing tasks. I had to replace a hard drive on my lapttop, and
it took 2 friggin' hours to download and install all the "Critical Updates"
for XP via an unpatched version of IE since that is the only browser that
can access Windows Update - Now there's a warm fuzzy for ya. And, no, the RC
patch is not an option for my production machines.

Ballmer's "Developers, Developres, Developers" is a joke. Although DotNet is
a really cool technology, releasing a non-backward compatible revision a
couple of years after the initial release, followed by yet another
non-backward compatible revision a couple years after that (maybe) doesn't
make me believe that MS interseted in anything more squeezing a few more $$$
out of their "Developers, Developres, Developers". It's hard enough keeping
up with the changes without having our wallets drained in the process.

Over the last 10 years I have spent thousands of dollars buying MS software,
attending their workshops, and acquiring training in the use of their
products. I have no plans to spend another dime. Unless MS, and its
advocates, open their eyes to the fact that people have had enough, an
almost certain deterioration in their user base, and their developers'
income is gauranteed.

If you would like, you can flame me in private -
http://www.activeinet.com/flame.aspx (No FP Bots were injured creating this
form). You don't need to leave an email address (unless you want a response)
or name and can engage in any unMVPlike conversation you desire. Or flame me
here in the group - Makes no difference to me.

Bob,

I didn't say or even hint that your answer was incorrect, I was just pointing out for those that may
not be aware that a web page can have any extension, so long as the web server has been configured
to process the extension as a web page.

Yes, I've noticed the "missing part of the recipe syndrome" on more than one occasion.

Like grandma's meatball recipe that never comes out correctly unless she's there to throw in the secret ingredient.

I can't tell ya how many times I've explored new tech stuff...ok installs correctly...then uhmmmm where are the rest of the pages to how to connect it and make it work...oh sorry we musta left out those 4 chapters. And open source aint always open source if there's no explanation now is it? More like...partially open source.

:-)
