Thanks Andy,

That worked perfectly.

Remember that I'm dealing with some compressed, obfuscated  
javascript which loads these resources (ie I can't change very  
much in how it loads these resources - just the dir in which too  
look for them, and the name of the file). I cannot use a PageLink  
in this situation. However, if I can determine the URL created by  
the PageLink to an html file deep in some component library (eg to  
org/apache/tapestry/contrib/table/components/Table.html), I might  
have a chance. However, I couldn't get it to correctly link to  
that page either (a longshot, I know).


Table

I'm thinking that it might be better to write a small service  
which will return the resource the javascript requests, but it  
seems like more work than should be necessary. Let me know if I  
misunderstood how you thought PageLink could help.


Thanks,
