This is FAQ and u would have got it from servlet archives
any way , here is the solution :-)
You generally don't want to hard-code the address of the images
unlessthey're on
a different server than the one serving up the servlets. Thelocation of the
images in the html is based on where the reference is beingmade from. There
are
two possibilities: 1) your "caller" is an html page,or 2) your caller
is a servlet. Let's assume the following web virtualdirectories:
webServer ...web server/www
...web root/www/myProject ...virtual directory for this project
/www/myProject/images ...images for this
project/servlet
...virtual directory for the servlet engine
Too many people would say " http://webServer/myProject/images/abc.jpg
<http://webserver/myProject/images/abc.jpg> " -- toougly and restrictive
(imagine you work 2-3 months and create sever hundredpages with myServer
hard-coded and the boss says to install your site on"theirServer").
If your caller is an html page from the above project,you'll typically say
something like "images/abc.jpg". If you've rendered ahtml page from a
servlet, then you'd have to say"/myProject/images/abc.jpg". You
definitely don't want to hard-code thefull url with the web server name in
there
since you'll probably need tomove the web app to another server.

Subject: Servlet problem for displaying image
Hi,
I am generating the HTML page from Servlet using "out.println" statement but
when I set the background image of this page
like
out.println("<BODY BACKGROUND=\"modetxt.gif\" LINK=\"black\" VLINK=\"black\"
>");
I have copied image files in servlet directory and public_html in Java Web
Server 1.1.3 but this doesn't help me to get the image.
I tried
out.println("<IMG SRC=\"bkg_wb.GIF\" WIDTH=\"990\" HEIGHT=\"10\"
ALIGN=\"BOTTOM\" BORDER=\"0\"></P>");
out.println("<P ALIGN=\"CENTER\"><IMG SRC=\"importsoft.gif\" WIDTH=\"375\"
HEIGHT=\"60\" ALIGN=\"BOTTOM\" BORDER=\"0\"></P>");
out.println("<P ALIGN=\"CENTER\"><IMG SRC=\"bkg_wb.GIF\" WIDTH=\"990\"
HEIGHT=\"10\" ALIGN=\"BOTTOM\" BORDER=\"0\"></P>");
this code also but I am unable to load any image.
Please help me in this case.
thanks & regards.
Nitin
