Re: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again

[Robert Koberg]

You are misunderstanding when the CSS gets used.  CSS is client-side. When the browser parses the html you send, it will see the <LINK> tag and download the external css document to apply styles.   A simple way to deal with this is have your CSS off the document root or in a sub-dir just off the doc-root:   <LINK             REL="stylesheet"             TYPE="text/css"             HREF="/css/mycss.css" >   so, the file could be dowloaded if someone typed in this URL:   http://www.abc.com/css/mycss.css   HTH   ----- Original Message ----- From: Brynolf Andersson To: Orion-Interest Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2001 3:28 PM Subject: Aaarrrghhh!! CSS and Servlet again Hi all again, I have been trying all lot of different ways to pick uppthe CSS file but without any success. So I'll try to see if anyone has some more thing to add to my problem. The question is still there, where should I put my CSS file and how should I pick it up from the servlet.
