We had that problem, but got around it by doing the following in our main
site template:
<% String contextPath = request.getContextPath(); %>
Then when referencing an image or the css file just do the following:
<img src="<%=contextPath%>/images/someimage.gif" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<%=contextPath%>/css/all.css" type="text/css" />
This also made life easier in a team environment when people have multiple
copies of the applications running in their own context.
Hopefully that's what you were looking for.
