Well...I am not really sure. I am actually experiencing two different problems depending on the version of faces I use. The first is that I get an exception using the base tag in 0.5. The second is that the tag is rendered incorrectly in that it creates "http://register.do"; instead of "http://host:8080/register.do";. Reading thru the email that Lesaint sent it seems like a similar problem. I too get a jasper exception. I haven't been able to find the real source of the problem as I think it is hiden by some problems like those I described with resolving names.
Michael "James Holmes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote I don't understand the problem. Maybe I am being myopic. Is the problem that the base tag is generating the full path to the page and not the "base" url (e.g., "http://site.com/page.html"; instead of "http://site.com/";)? -James -----Original Message----- From: Michael Rasmussen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 7:16 PM To: 'Struts Developers List' Subject: James Holmes:is this related?

Michael -----Original Message----- From: Lesaint Sébastien [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2004 9:50 AM To: Struts Developers List Subject: RE: [bug?] <html:base> tag and mozilla As I described, my problem was related to Mozilla and the way it handled the html <base> tag. To solve the problem: - I assume that none of the my website viewers will use mozilla (kind of stupid, imo) - I remove the html <base> tag from my pages - I modify the baseTag class so that the displayed URI in the page does not contain the file name (therefore Mozilla will be unable to request a page that should not and cause errors) - I notify the Mozilla developer community of this problem and ask them their opinion For the time being, I'm using the second solution. But, as I think the html <base> tag is quite useful to the browser to resolve relative links, I don't think it is good long-term solution. What's your opinion about this? -- Seb' PS.: what's the meaning of "w/o" (in "[...] who would use JSF (much less struts-faces) w/o real design tools?" for example)? -----Message d'origine----- De : Michael Rasmussen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : jeudi 10 juin 2004 15:25 À : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Objet : RE: [bug?] <html:base> tag and mozilla We were hearing about problems with struts-faces users and the html:base tag. thought it was a faces problem.
