instead of writing: <a href="/common/header.jsp">test</a>
try: <a href="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/common/header.jsp">test</a> When you are creating html, make sure the context path is given. Paths in HTML are different than paths in your java code. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Prideaux [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 2:58 PM To: tomcat user Subject: simple context question for tomcat In my development environment, for my "myapp" web-app, I'm doing the following <jsp:include page="/commmon/header.jsp" flush="true"/> and it finds the file just fine. header.jsp is in the common directory under the "myapp" webapp. Although, if I use an anchor <a href="/common/header.jsp">test</a> it doesn't find the file. it looks to my "root" webapp. I must use <a href="/myapp/common/header.jsp">test</a> What configuration step must I do so that my anchors (and references to images) can be addressed using the first way I tried (without having to use /myapp/...) I have reasons for not using relative addressing (../common/...). Any tips on the configuration steps (even general comments) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
