JSP mapping with Tomcat 5.0.27

Question

With Jakarta-Tomcat 5.0.27 is it possible to put a JSP file in a sub-directory of a web application and be able to "servlet-mapping" it to only create one object? If so how do you write the web.xml entry? I only want to create one InitTest object, not two of them!
If I place InitTest.jsp in the following directory structure:
C:\tomcat\webapps\web-app\subDirectory\InitTest.jsp
This web.xml entry does not work:
     <servlet>
          <servlet-name>InitTest</servlet-name>
          <jsp-file>/subDir/InitTest.jsp</jsp-file>
     </servlet>
     <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>InitTest</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>/InitTest.jsp</url-pattern>
     </servlet-mapping>When I use this link:
http://localhost:8080/web-app/subDir/InitTest.jsp
I get "jsp" as the servlet name
and
When I use this link:
http://localhost:8080/web-app/servlet/InitTest
I get "InitTest" as the servlet name
How do I map InitTest.jsp correctly when it's placed in a sub-directory of the web application's directory?

dear friend...y do you want to map your jsp page?? you can directly access your jsp from your location. You dont needd to map in the web.xml. You need to map only servlets not jsps
