<% String scheme = request.getScheme(); // e.g. "http" String serverName = request.getServerName(); // e.g. "com.myserver" %> But unless I miss something, you could just use a relative path in the link instead of going through all this: <a href="pageInSameDir.jsp"> <a href="../pageInParentDir.jsp"> If you need to generate a context-relative path (starting with a slash, interpreted as relative to the application's context-path), you can do it this way: <a href="<%= request.getContextPath() %>"/pageAtTheRoot.jsp"> Even better, use the new JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL, currently in beta): <a href="<c:url value="/pageAtTheRoot.jsp">"> For more about JSTL, see: <http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/standard-doc/intro.html> Hans -- Hans Bergsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gefion Software http://www.gefionsoftware.com JavaServer Pages http://TheJSPBook.com =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
