Hi guys, Having some real problems with paths in my Faces app for some reason!
I am using Oracle App Server 10g 10.1.2 with MyFaces 1.1.0, JSP 1.2 & Web-app 2.3. Wish I could use Web-app 2.4 but 10.1.2 does not support it, and it requires DTDs in config xml files etc. Lots of fun. File structure: \index.jsp \style\css\project.css \uploadfile.jsp \results\uploadfile.jsp \results\pageheader.jsp \results\externaldata.jsp I am including pageheader.jsp in each page in my project like so: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?> <jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page"; version="1.2" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; xmlns:t="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk";> <jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8"/> <f:view locale="#{facesContext.externalContext.request.locale}"> <f:loadBundle basename="web.bundles.Messages" var="msg"/> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style/css/dcts.css" type="text/css"/> <title><h:outputText value="#{msg.title}" /></title> </head> <body width="100%"> <jsp:include page="pageheader.jsp" flush="true"/> <!-- or /results/pageheader.jsp in files in the "root" --> This works some times but not always. I have also tried /style/ and ../style/ and it does not work every time either. It seems to depend on where I'm "coming from" ie coming from index.jsp, then calling a /results/externaldata.jsp with href="style/" works. But then if I'm in /results/uploadfile.jsp and call /results/externaldata.jsp, then the href="style/" does not work, and it requires ="../style". So I have decided to provide the entire path, using Context Path or something similar. I have tried: <link rel="stylesheet" href="<h:outputText value="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}" />/style/css/project.css" type="text/css"/> does not work <link rel="stylesheet" href="${facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/style/css/project.css" type="text/css"/> does not work <link rel="stylesheet" href="${pageContext.request.contextPath} /style/css/project.css" type="text/css"/> does not work Also, I'm looking for a "universal" way to refer to this /results/pageheader.jsp include file. In some places I have to use /results and in others I can just use pageheader.jsp. There must be a way to get the my application path (in the file system) and use it in the jsp:include call rather than sometimes using /results and other times not. This seems to be a pretty easy thing, but its not working for me, at least not consistently. How are the rest of you doing this? Thanks. Wayne
