title: Spring MVC: Avoiding file extension in URL
body: <p>I've looked at this post: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1399487/spring-mvc-avoiding-file-extension-in-url">Spring MVC; avoiding file extension in url?</a></p>
  
  <p>This isn't working.... when I use</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;servlet-mapping&gt;
      &lt;servlet-name&gt;Spring-MVC-Dispatcher-Servlet&lt;/servlet-name&gt;
      &lt;url-pattern&gt;/*&lt;/url-pattern&gt;
  &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the warning</p>
  
  <pre><code>WARNING: No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/CMT/WEB-INF/jsp/content/edit.jsp] in DispatcherServlet with name 'Spring-MVC-Dispatcher-Servlet'
  WARNING: No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/CMT/WEB-INF/jsp/content/edit.jsp] in DispatcherServlet with name 'Spring-MVC-Dispatcher-Servlet'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My default settings are using <code>*.htm</code> and the URL <code>http://localhost:8080/CMT/content/edit.htm</code>, but I'd like to be using <code>http://localhost:8080/CMT/content/edit</code></p>
  
  <p>I also still need to be able to load resources like js/css files located in <code>CMT/js</code>, <code>CMT/css</code> and <code>CMT/lib</code></p>
