No we are talking about the same thing. My point is that my global.js is stored in
.../webapps/rwtransform/resources/global.js It was not referred to anywhere that I know of (i.e. I was using VelocityECSLeyout and had no <SCRIPT ....> statement anywhere) and yet it was available to my screen templates. The guy that built the original version of my templates is not available to me and I don't have any documentation to tell me how come the original version could automatically include the global.js and my version with the changes below cannot. I changed the directory structure for my templates and MUCH more significantly (I now realise) got rid of all references to Flux in my TR.props. What a lot of people do not realise (like me) is that they base their applications on newapp example and get Flux for free ;). But what no documentation tells you is that TR.props is setup to search through module.packages=org.mycompany.newapp.modules,org.apache.turbine.flux.modules and tool.request.flux=org.apache.turbine.flux.tools.FluxTool and services.VelocityService.file.resource.loader.path = /templates/app,/templates/flux I don't know is something in the Flux stuff includes the /resource directory with global.js I just know it no longer has access to that file. I will try Diederik's suggestion and let you know if it works.

What are you trying to reference ? Where is it on the filesystem ? The normal thing to do is to store your javascript files under something like "myapp/javascript" and reference it with $content.getURI("javascript/script.js"). The only directory that needs special treatment is the "templates" directory. If you want to reference something under "myapp/templates" you have to use $link.setPage(). Basically the only thing that should be under "myapp/templates" is templates. I have the feeling we're talking about completely different things here... > -----Original Message----- > From: David Wynter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 14:19 > To: Turbine Users List > Subject: RE: Finding path to resource > > > I should have said consistency from the perspective that the getURI calls > worked when I had a flat directory structure; > > app--- > |-layout > |-navigation > |-screens > > But no longer work now that I have a structure that reflect the > roles of the > folk that use the application. > > app--- > |-layout > | |-Admin > | |-MsgUser > | |-ExtractUser > | > |-navigation > | |-Admin > | |-MsgUser > | |-ExtractUser > | > |-screens > |-Admin > |-MsgUser > |-ExtractUser > > Before I had a single layout for the single role in the system called > Default.vm in the layouts directory.
