Yeah, but 99.9% of what you want to do with web.xml can be summarized in about 2-3 pages of documentations. It's NOT as complicated as you make it sound. The same goes for JSPs and JSTL. You could have a decent understanding of both technologies in an afternoon of reading.

Actually the web.xml spec got much worse somewhere in the increasing version numbers of Java Servlets. I rememeber just thinking "WTF" when I realized it was several 100 pages now. It definitely doesn't need to be that long, but I guess they wrote the documentation "enterprise style". It's just off-putting, who cares if the documentation could be simpler? They didn't make it simple, so I don't like it. Especially since the job of a Java developer is essentially digging through the mountain of specifications. In my companies library there is a book "Handbook Of Java Development" with 1300 pages in small print. I think somebody left it there as a cruel joke.
