Hello Hassan! :-)
DH> try
DH> {
DH> File imageFile = new File("./personnel/mfleshman.jpg");
DH> if(imageFile.exists() ){ %>
DH> Above code never finds the file.
Well, you could do
File imageFile = new File( pageContext.getServletContext().
getRealPath("/images/personell/mfleshman.jpg") );
If you're running tomcat and have tomcat installed
in C:\tomcat
and your current webapp is aaa
then the call will give
C:\tomcat\webapps\aaa\images\personell\mfleshman.jpg
(or something alike)
AFAIK the argument to getRealPath should start with
a "/".
But this won't work on weblogic, even if the app
is deployed in exploded directory format.
getRealPath() always returns null.
Be carefull other: engines may behave the same.
Maybe you could do your check as
<%if ( pageContext.getServletContext().
getResource("/images/personell/mfleshman.jpg") != null ){%>
Please also note that you were using relative name
"personell/mfleshman.jpg" while all these examples
use an absolute (starting with a "/").
I do not beleive there's a nice way to find out
presence of a resource relative to the current
page, maybe
String path =
request.getRequestURI().substring(request.getContextPath().length());
if (path.length()=0) path="/";
path = path.substring(0,path.lastIndexOf("/");
path = path + "/";
path = path + "personel/some.gif";
if (servletContext.getResource(path)!=null)
