I need to pass a url as a parameter to a JSP page. I can't rely on just using the relative path. Currently the urls that map to struts actions look like this http://localhost/appname/servletmappingurlpattern/path/that/resolves/to/ struts/action When using the struts tag html:link all that I have to specify is /path/that/resolves/to/struts/action. I need to programatically retrieve or construct /appname/servletmappingurlpattern part of the url. One way to do this is to just parse the url, but I would rather use the proper api if there is one. I can't use the html:link tag as the page attribute won't accept nested tags. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance, Andreas PS If there is a place to search old postings, please point it out to me.
