RE: can't match images in sitemap

[java guru]

Yes.,
  there is abstraction between the url and actual
location of the files on the disk...But from my
understanding what the situation is..

1. If you have sent over html to browser with image
link as "/images/image1.jpg" and that html url is
"http://localhost:8080/cocoon/welcome";..

2. When the browser sends request back to server, the
request for image is formed like
"http://localhost:8080/images/image1.jpg"..this is
something browser did..

3. When the request hits the server, thr url doesnt
fall under category of url to be forwarded to
cocoon..and hence the web server(tomcat) try to handle
by itself(or root web application)..which would not
find the file obviously..

4. Now on the page of
"http://localhost:8080/cocoon/welcome/intro"; if u have
image with "images/image1.gif" the request from
browser for image is formed like
"http://localhost:8080/cocoon/welcome/images/image1.jpg";..

5. Now once this request hits the server, the request
if forwarded to cocoon by the container, by this time
the uri becomes "welcom/images/image1.jpg" as it
entered to "cocoon" context..

6. This resulted uri is passed thru the "mathers" and
if u have match saying "
pattern="images/*.jpg"..obviously the requested uri
doesnt match with the specified pattern..

7. This has nothing to do with abstraction between uri
and actual file..This has to do with the way url are
handled by browser
