Hey all,

I just decided to package my webapp as a WAR and deploy it into a local
Tomcat install.  Up until this point, I've been accessing the app using
JettyLauncher and things have been working great.  So, I was a bit surprised
to see all of my image paths were messed up when I deployed the WAR.

It turns out the problem that I made all of my paths relative to /.  So, all
of my image paths are /images/something.  This was to avoid using relative
paths like ../../../images/something.  Turns out while using JettyLauncher,
I always deployed to the root context, so no issues.  Deploying the WAR
however has left me with something like http://localhost:8080/webapp/.  So,
all of my links point to an invalid location.

I realize I can configure the webapp to be in the root context of Tomcat,
and I may just go that route.  Is there a better way to do this though?  I'm
thinking using assets might help, but I'm looking to keep things as clean as
possible too, so if I can cut out complexity, all the better.

Sorry for such a basic question.  I've probably run into this once before,
but I really don't recall how I dealt with it.

Thanks,
Kevin
