I don't know if your JSP can point to a virtual directory on Apache, but did you notice that you've placed your include files in:
/www/secweb/webapps/ca/include but your virtual directory points to: /www/secweb/webapps/include Maybe this was just a typing error in your email? -B >>> Mike Silvers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 01/14/03 05:37AM >>> I would like to use a common header and footer across several different webapps. I am trying to include the files and I can not get the include to find the correct file. I am using a Tomcat server. Here is what I have tried: <%@ include file="/include/Header.jsp" %> and in the Apache web server config I have defined an alias as: Alias /include/ /www/secweb/webapps/include/ The directory of /www/secweb/webapps contains the web app of /ca/ and the folder for the includes files. I guess the real question here is, can I have the JSP include point to a location that is not in the web app structure? Any ideas?
