Yes, you can do this. You need to use three slashes at the front, so your example would be:
<c:import url="file:///d:\repository\assets\doc.html"/> >From the remaining separators, you can use either '/' or '\', but personally I always use '/' because then I don't have to worry about which I can use where. -- Martin Cooper ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Raible" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Tag Libraries Users List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 7:14 PM Subject: Using c:import to include the contents of a file > I want to do the following: > > <c:import url="file://d:\repository\assets\doc.html"/> > > However, I get an UnknownHostException - is it possible to do this with > JSTL?
