If you place absolute path to the images (e.g urls that start with /) you
shouldn't have any problem either way.
The problem I've encountered is that since the JSP page compile ass the
<BASE...> tag to the output I have a problem embedding one JSP in another if
they are located on differend directories.

Subject: Model 2 Path Issues

I am using Model 2 architecture for a project. This is the scenario.

1. All my jsp files are in <root>/cmerch/jsp.
2. All my servlets are in <root>/cmerch/servlets.
3. in the webserver (IPlanet), /cm is mapped to /cmerch/servlets.

The problem :-

I use /cm/testServlet1 to invoke testServlet1 from a jsp page. From the
servlet, I forward to a jsp page using the path /cmerch/jsp/jsppage1.jsp.
The problem is with the location of the image files in the jsp files. I
always have to specify the image file directory with respect to the root
directory if I need to invoke the page from the servlet. I want to reuse the
same page (jsppage1) in another project - where there are no servlets, only
JSPs. In this case, the location of the image files need to be relative to
JSP page.

Any suggestions? Is it a webserver problem? I am using IPlanet, JSP 0.92.

jsppage1.jsp
--------
format1 :  "<img src=images/bigimage.gif";
format2 :  "<img src=/cmerch/jsp/images/bigimage.gif";

Project 1 :-
Only jsps are used. I have to use format1 to make it work.

Project 2 :-
jsps+servlets are used. I have to use format2 to make it work.
