RE: Pointing to resources within the struts app client side.
The browser should not be able to load any resource from /WEB-INF/ the servlet engine will protect this directory. -Original Message- From: Simon Kelly [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 18 February, 2003 16:18 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Pointing to resources within the struts app client side. Hi all, I'm trying to place an image with my web page that is stored as a resource within my struts web-app. I'm using xslt to create the output html, but can't work out how to point at the image correctly. I had put src=/WEB-INF/classes/resources/graphics/icon.bmp, but this will not display iether the image or the alt description. Anyone have a clue how I can do this?

Images are loaded by the browser in a separate request, they don't come down the pipe with the HTML. So you have to put those images in a place where a normal browser request can find them, and that's going to be above WEB-INF. Try making an 'images' directory off of the root of your webapp. I'm not sure why the alt text isn't appearing, though... can you post the JSP you're using to generate the image tag and the resulting HTML? -- Wendy Smoak Applications Systems Analyst, Sr. Arizona State University PA Information Resources Management

Re: Pointing to resources within the struts app client side.
Wendy, Tried several paths descriptions for the graphics directory and the following did nothing http://127.0.0.1:8080/katrin/graphics/FZKIcon.bmp ../graphics/FZKIcon.bmp but these gave the following error graphics/FZKIcon.bmp /graphics/FZKIcon.bmp 18-Feb-2003 16:55:57 org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor process INFO: Processing a 'GET' for path '/graphics/FZKIcon.bmp' 18-Feb-2003 16:55:57 org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor processMapping SEVERE: Invalid path /graphics/FZKIcon.bmp was requested Any thoughts?
