Peter,
When I display images in my servlets, I don't normally define where they are
in the web.xml file. I don't know Tomcat well enough to be sure if this
approach is possible but I suspect the most common way to do it is the way I
do it.
In my case, I simply include the HTML that displays the image in the doGet()
that displays the page. This excerpt illustrates this approach:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>My Title</title>");
out.println("<LINK rel=\"stylesheet\" TYPE=\"text/css\"
HREF=\"event_form.css\">");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("<div align=\"center\">");
out.println("<table class=\"outer\" width=\"620\" cellpadding=\"8\">");
/** THE FOLLOWING IS THE RELEVANT LINE **/
out.println("<tr><td><img src=\"logo_small.gif\" alt=\"logo\"></td></tr>");
out.println("<tr><td><h2>Event Input</h2></td></tr>");
out.println("<form action=EventHandler method=POST>");
out.println("<table class=\"form\" width=\"620\" cellspacing=0
cellpadding=0>");
out.println("</table>");
out.println("</div></body></html>");
}
As long as the image is where Tomcat is looking for it, you should have no
problem. In my case, the image is sitting in the highest-level of the WAR
file.

Subject: image not displayed
Since i am new to Tomcat i installed tomcat 5 on a Suse 8.2 linux machine
and tried to install the First Webapp Servlet example.
I have placed all files in subdirectories of myapp, thus:
myapp/src/mypackage/Hello.java,
myapp/web/WEB-INF/web.xml
myapp/web/image/tomcat.gif
After ant install and starting a local browser, the text output is shown
correctly but the image is not displayed. I cant figure out why the image
isn't shown. Did i mis something in the web.xml? (see below)
<web-app>
<display-name>My Web Application</display-name>
<description>This is version X.X of an application.</description>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>myapp</servlet-name>
<display-name>Description of mypackage servlet.</display-name>
<description>Description of mypackage servlet.</description>
<servlet-class>mypackage.Hello</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>myapp</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
Thanks for any help.
Peter
