Hi Martyn
This is not a bug but a "feature". Infact when you specify an absolute
path for the "value" attribute, the JSTL will prepend it with the
"context" of the web-app. In your case, i think you have a context with
path "/" in your server.xml (or context.xml etc)
From the spec, section 7.5:
The URL must be either an absolute URL starting with a scheme
(e.g. "http:// server/context/page.jsp") or a relative URL as
defined by JSP 1.2 in JSP.2.2.1 "Relative URL Specification". As a
consequence, an implementation must prepend the context path to a
URL that starts with a slash (e.g. "/page2.jsp") so that such URLs
can be properly interpreted by a client browser.
You should use relative paths to avoid it :D

Hi All
I am having a problem with Tomcat 5.0.28. I designed a website a few
months ago and I started working on it again. I cant remember what
version Tomcat I designed it in but now I'm trying Tomcat 5.0.28.
When I deploy my website everything deploys perfectly. When i view the
page it's white as if there is no style. I then viewed the source and I
saw this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//displayThemeCss" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//displayModuleCss" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//displaySystemModulesCss"
type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//core/css/common.css" type="text/css" />
The source code in my jsp file is this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<c:url value="/displayThemeCss" />"
type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<c:url value="/displayModuleCss" />"
type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<c:url
value="/displaySystemModulesCss" />" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<c:url value="/core/css/common.css"
/>" type="text/css" />
As you can see the c:url tag messes up the url by adding 2 forward
slahes. This makes the browser think that it shoulod load the style
sheets from the server displayThemeCss, displayModuleCss etc
I beleive this to be a bug in the class that formats the url. Does
anybody know how to solve this.
Thanks in advance,
Martyn
