i want to know why is index.jsp invoked when we type

http://localhost:8080

i know its because its placed inside the ROOT folder and this folder is set as the default some where...
but i couldn't see anywhere saying about index.jsp index.jsp

with lots of expectation i opened

ROOT\WEB-INF\web.xml

thinking that index.jsp will be set here as a welcome file...
but i couldn't find that also...

so pls can anyone tell me how is this done..???
