Thanks for suggestion but I can't use <html:base> because all my JSPs are under WEB-INF\pages
Putting <html:base/> in will cause images (and any relative urls) to have URLs of <img src="WEB-INF/pages/images/find_obj.gif"> which is even worse (doesn't work at all) and defeats the point of putting pages under WEB-INF!
