Hey there. I have a MVC setup..a controller servlet, passes off to action classes, populate a JavaBean then forward to a JSP page. Why is it in the action class, (which is basically a servlet), that the request.getContextPath() returns the proper value..the web-app context, the path etc. But in a JSP page, the same call returns an empty string. I don't understand why, if JSP is turned into a servlet and is invoked the same way..that it would return nothing at all. Thanks. =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
