okay, I changed mine to mimic your example above and it worked fine.
Thank you for the suport and pointer. It does seem a bit odd, though as
mine were previously :

<filter filter-name="gzip"
filter-class="org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.GzipFilter"> ...</filter>

which is acceptable to most appservers like tomcat and resin. What I
deduce from this is that Jetty doesnt support filter-name and
filter-class as attributes in the <filter> node, and only accepts them
as child-nodes. Is this because Jetty is supporting a standard that hte
others are lax about? or is there some other reason? 

Thank you for time and information,

best regards

Richard
