Yes, you are correct that the .do is part of struts.

However, this appears to be a setup issue with my site.

Again, I have this working in my testing environment.  It is only an 
issue after deployment to my web site.

Also note that is will work if I access the application in the following 
manner:

http://mysite.com:8080/TestStruts1/

TestStrust1 is the folder I copied all of components to.

The above method will render the initial JSP and after entering the data 
on the form and hitting submit the success page returns completed with 
the input data provided on the form.

So this does work ....

It will not work however when I attempt to run it with 
http://www.mysite.com/TestStruts1/newArticle.jsp.

After I press the submit button I continue to get the following:

/TestStruts1/addArticle.do
