use servlet-name instead of url-pattern with struts

Hi,

Most examples seem to specify the following web.xml configuration:
	<filter-mapping>
	    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
	    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
	</filter-mapping>

But I noticed that all browser requests, even secondary requests for images contained in pages cause the filter to be invoked, which obviously did no decoration in those instances.

I am using struts and all my requests go through the struts action servlet so I suggest use of the following would elliminate redundant calls to sitemesh when secondary files (mainly images) are being requested:
	<filter-mapping>
	    <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
	    <servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
	</filter-mapping>

Regards

Martin
