RE: external-graphic within a war file
Thanks for the suggestion Tomasz, unfortunately it didn't work. The URL printed out as the following(without quotes): zip:C:/path to warfile/webapp_dealinfo.war#images/logo_gs.gif when I put this string in the fo xsl file as the value of the src attribute I got a similar error: [1Error while creating area : Invalid Image URL - error on relative URL : unknown protocol: nullc] Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Here's what the code looks like now: fo:table-cell fo:block fo:external-graphic src=zip:C:/TEMP/mercury/lib/war/ecm/webapp_info.war#images/logo_gs.gif / /fo:block /fo:table-cell Thanks.

RE: external-graphic within a war file
The servlet is running within Weblogic 5.1 (my firm's standard for the time being) I'll try this one, Thanks again.

external-graphic within a war file
Hi- I'm attempting to use a gif image using the fo:external-graphic tag. Both the gif file and the xsl file are located in a war file. The gif is located in a directory /images (from the war file's root) and the xsl file is located in a directory named web-inf. So far I've tried using the following: !-- GS logo box -- fo:table-cell fo:block fo:external-graphic src=/images/logo_gs.gif / /fo:block /fo:table-cell !-- GS logo box -- fo:table-cell fo:block fo:external-graphic src=file:/images/logo_gs.gif / /fo:block /fo:table-cell !-- GS logo box -- fo:table-cell fo:block fo:external-graphic src=images/logo_gs.gif / /fo:block /fo:table-cell !-- GS logo box -- fo:table-cell fo:block fo:external-graphic src=file://images/logo_gs.gif / /fo:block /fo:table-cell Each of these have given me the following error: [1Error while creating area : Invalid Image URL - error on relative URL : no protocol: null/images/logo_gs.gif What is the best way to refer to an image from within a war file? Is the war file even the issue? Thanks. Jeff Orford * Jeffrey Orford Goldman Sachs Information Technology (212)357-1306 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Plans are nothing; Planning is everything -Eisenhower *
