I generally use one of the following <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<%= request.getContextPath()%>/styles/default.css"/>
or using the Struts html taglib... <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<html:rewrite page='/styles/default.css'/>"/> HTH, Shane -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 11:35 AM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: relative path problem I find that paths can be stated as absolute, from the root of my web-app. So, for example, my style sheets are linked as: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/myappname/styles/default.css"/> This seems to work, but it introduces a secondary problem. What if I change the name of my app? I suppose I could always put the app-name as a constant and reference it that way... I have seen a couple of examples that use "./styles/default.css" so I am assuming that works too. But I haven't actually tried changing my references yet. That would solve my secondary problem as well as your initial one.
