Dirk,
Thanks for the reply.
Your suggestion for placing the /include directory in each of my
wars is the workaround I'll probably use.
I'm currently using absolute includes in another app running on a
Tomcat server without a problem. I'm not sure if I've modified
anything in the Tomcat config to allow this, it has been a long time
since I configured that server. We're running a closed shop with
only a few IT employees having access to deploy to our boxes.
Security isn't really a concern with our limited number of potential
people with the ability to deploy code.
Thanks again for the reply.

Hello, Bob
AFAIK the JSP include statement is used to refer to a file starting
from
the actual JSP file location. So, let's assume you have a file
index.jsp
which should include a file from a subdirectory, your idea is right:
<jsp:include page="dir/my.html"/>
(I tend to use JSPFs :P)
The problem is: you can only reference files from within your webapp
context. That's security related, I think. Imagine you're a web hoster
which hosts jsp files ;) the users would be able to include my
/etc/passwd file ;)))))
So, yes, the path is relative from/to the JSP file position.
Another idea: do you include your includes/header.html file within
your
war file?
Best regards

I'm attempting to include content using the <jsp:include> tag.
I'm the
following code within a JSP:
<jsp:include page="/includes/header.html"/>
When the page is loaded, the message "The requested resource
(/staff/includes/header.html) is not available" appears. I'm
specifying
an absolute path, but Geronimo appears to be treating it as a
relative
path (my app contains <context-root>/staff</context-root> in
geronimo-web.xml).
I tried something similar using JSTL:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED] uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; prefix="c"%>
<c:import url="/includes/header.html" />
Again, "The requested resource (/staff/includes/header.html) is not
available" appears when the page is loaded.
I've used similar code within Tomcat without any problems. I'm
new to
Geronimo. is there something I missed in the config? Do I need to
enable absolute path usage?
Thanks,
Bob
