You have to look at it from the client side since that's where the path
to the resource is constructed. If you'd like the more stable server
relative path to a form, then do this in your jsp:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="${request.contextPath}/control">
.... form body ......
</form>
${request.contextPath} returns the server relative path of your webapp
and you can tack on any webapp relative path you need.

Hi,
I have a servlet defined in web.xml and this is how I defined it
<servlet>
<servlet-name>controllerServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
tests.servlets.ControllerServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>controllerServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/control</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I am trying to call this servlet from a JSP page using HTML form.
<form name="form1" method="post" action="../control">
</form>
The above form call works but why should I give ../control? And this
is relative path to the context. It never works if I give "control".
I have not enabled invoker servlet in conf/web.xml. Am I missing any
setting? I am using Tomcat 5.0.28
Thanks
Uma
