Hi Dan,

I just ran into this same issue today, and I hope that somebody has a better
idea than what I ended up doing.  I changed the .css files to .jsp and put
script tags around them and included them as JSPs.  This, of course, gave me
access to taglibs which would let me prepend the context path to the image.

Your example would end up looking something like this:

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html-el.tld" prefix="html-el" %>
<style type="text/css">
ul {
list-style-image: url(<html-el:rewrite page="/images/li.gif"/>);
}
</style>

This is all I was able to figure out.  Does anybody have any better ideas?

Thanks,

Justin
