Unless you override it (with a meta tag in the <head> section, I think) the
base URL of a page generated by a servlet is the URL of that servlet.
Let's look at an example. Assume you have a web application at
"http://www.mycompany.com:8080/myapp", and you have an "images" directory
underneath the document root containing your images. Now, assume you have a
servlet whose URL is:
http://www.mycompany.com:8080/myapp/servlet/MyServlet
If you want the page generated by this servlet to refer to an image in the
images subdirectory, you will need to generate your <img> tag like this:
<img src="../images/myimage.gif">
in order to resolve the relative URL correctly.
