The CSS directory is under the app context, alongside WEB-INF. Am I specifying the path to the CSS correctly? Anyone can suggest what else I may be doing wrong?
I am not a JSP specialist, but I would guess that your problem is indeed with the above.
You have to think from the point of view of /the browser/, because it is the browser who will interpret this, relatively to where /it/ thinks it has got the original page from.
In other words, suppose that the user's browser originally gets this page from a link like :
http://somehost/myapp/somedir?somequery Then, to obtain the above stylesheet, the browser is going to : - strip the ? and whatever is after it (if anything) - strip the last element of the path (somedir), leaving http://somehost/myapp/ - add the relative reference (../../CSS/style1.css) to that, resulting in http://somehost/myapp/../../CSS/style1.css Now, does that point to the right place on the server ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
