There was a recent addition to the <html:image> and <html:img> tags to
support internationalized images elegantly.
Previously, you had to use the "src" attribute to specify the URI of your
image. If you needed different images for each language, you had to use a
scriptlet expression of some sort to calculate them.
Now, you can specify a message key (to be looked up in your application
resources) instead:
<html:image srcKey="message.key"/>
where "message.key" identifies the path to this image from your
application resources.
If you want to use context-relative paths everywhere, use:
<html:image pageKey="message.key"/>
instead.
