docBase application directory
Hello forum, As you can see in http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b45/jeusdi/doubt.png , from a CSS file I refer to /img/pageheader_background.png, but when I load the HTML page, the image isn't loaded. So, I believe tomcat doesn't found the image: CSS file is under css folder and the image is under img folder. I don't know why Tomcat doesn't found this image? META-INF/context.xml-- ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? Context path=/web_gm reloadable=true docBase=web_gm workDir=web_gm/work /Context I believed that docBase tell to tomcat that / of the web application deployed is $docBase. So, if in my CSS file I write /img/file.png implies that tomcat searches file under $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/web_gm/img folder. Can you help me please? I want to refer to my resources using /img/..., I don't want to use ../../img/ Thanks for all in advanced. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/docBase-application-directory-tf4293850.html#a12223169 Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: docBase application directory
I think your assumption regarding how tomcat uses docBase is in error. Path's in a HTML file are resolved by the BROWSER and as such there is no awareness of a webapp. Your path /img/pageheader_background.png would be a site relative path to either a webapp named img or in absense of that, a folder named img in the ROOT webapp. If you want this to be correct, it should be /web_gm/img/pageheader_background.png. Since this is in a css file, you could also do a relative reference to your css file. If the css is in a folder named css on the same level as the img folder, the reference would be ../img/pageheader_background.png --David jeusdi wrote: Hello forum, As you can see in http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b45/jeusdi/doubt.png , from a CSS file I refer to /img/pageheader_background.png, but when I load the HTML page, the image isn't loaded.

Re: docBase application directory
Well.. not exactly. Per the CSS spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#value-def-uri), if the url is in a separate css file, it's relative to the css file, not the page. --David Christopher Schultz wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Jeusdi, jeusdi wrote: when I load the HTML page, the image isn't loaded.
