Do you have any logs of what's going on? Also, make sure the pages are
using the <c:url /> tag (or equivalent), as the image paths need to be
relative to the url that the client browser see - should be able to hard
code the path to be /ntrr/images/whatever.jpg
To check for bad paths first view page source from your browser, then
you can get the image urls and see if they map to the correct path.
There are also some nice tools that you can run to see what's going on,
for instance the "Live Headers" extension for Firefox, or Ethereal for a
more general solution

Hello,
I'm starting a new project, using a FrontController servlet
(http://java.sun.com/j2ee/patterns/FrontController.html),
and am unable to access image files.
My understanding is that each <img> invokes another call
to the server/servlet, which, due to the mapping in web.xml,
is channeled through the controller servlet, which rejects
the call because it does not point to a sub-servlet.
How can I access images in webapps/ntrr/images/ ?
My web.xml:
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
controller
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.ntrr.core.ControlServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
controller
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
/*
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
I have tried, without success, adding:
<init-param>
<param-name>imageUrl</param-name>
<param-value>http://localhost:8080/ntrr/images/</param-value>
</init-param>
The files in webapps/ntrr/images/ ARE accessible from
webapps/ntrr/css/ntrr.css, when called as background
page images, for example.
Any suggestions welcomed.
Thanks,
-BC
