Defining a web application name

Question

          Hi
          The syntax for accessing a given resource is given as below.
          http://hoststring/ContextPath/servletPath/pathInfo
          Context path is the name of the web application.
          My question is where do I define the name of the web application. Is it in web.xml
          or weblogic.xml.
          Also could you give me an example of the syntax.
          Next I wish to access a JSP page on the server, so do I omit the 'servletpath' and
          the 'pathInfo' part of the above string.
          I am using Weblogic 7.0.
          Thanks in advance for your help
          Best

http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/webapp/index.html
          The context path is defined in application.xml in your ear file
          eg
          <display-name>myapp</display-name>
          <module>
          <web>
          <web-uri>myapp-web.war</web-uri>
          <context-root>myapp</context-root>
          </web>
          </module>
          So to access the "root" of your webapp you would use www.myserver.com/myapp
          The servlet path is defined in web.xml
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>com.mycompany.MyServlet</servlet-class>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>/myservlet</url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>
          To call the servlet you would use www.myserver.com/myapp/myservlet
