I think you must be missing something, although it's hard to say. I
understood that the servlet is creating the HTML page. But links in the
generated page (which are not links to a servlet, CGI, etc.) are handled
by the browser and server as requests for static pages or files. The
request for StyleSheet.css is handled as a request for a static file.
Here's what works on the project I work on:
web server root: /management/web/htm
If a web browser used the URL http://www.ourServer.com/index.html, the
server sends the page /management/web/htm/index.html
style sheet is located at /management/web/htm/StyleSheet.css
Our project uses servlets which generate the html that is sent to the
browser.
Here's the style sheet link created by one of our servlets:
<link rel=StyleSheet href="/IlsStyleSheet.css" type="text/css">
When the browser sends the request for the style sheet, the server
interprets the request for /StyleSheet.css as a request for
http://{server root}/StyleSheet.css, and that's the file
(/management/web/htm/StyleSheet.css) that the server sends.
If the style sheet was located at
/management/web/htm/stylesheets/StyleSheet.css, the link would be
HREF="/stylesheets/StyleSheet.css"
