Thanks. That does the trick.
I also found out that it is much more convenient to have the following:
<head>
<base href="#{utilBean.basePath}" />
</head>
After that all path will be resolved relative to the basePath, saving quite
a bit of typing. For example:
<img src="images/logo.bmp" />
Best regards,
Yee

Subject: Re: Is there a Path component in JSF
#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath} for
request.getContextPath().
You could probably get the rest using
#{facesContext.externalContext.request.scheme} and so on.
However, you're probably better off writing a backing bean to do all
of this for you so you keep all of the logic out of your pages.
#{basePathBackingBean.basePath} which computes and returns the value of
String basePath = request.getScheme() + "://" +
request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +
request.getContextPath() + "/";
You could also do it by defining a facelets function.
Or you could create a custom component that does all of this, and
that'd work for facelets or jsp.
