Yes Terence, IE adds the trailing slash, but other browsers dont, thats
one of the reason it fails in other browser other than IE.

Sorry I need some more help, have one more weird issue at my plate now,
I am using base tag and pulling out the webapplication context path
to it like this so that all links in the page becomes relative to
this path,i am doing something like below,
<base href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}">
which resolves to " /mydomain"/ in IE and base tag looks like this
<base href="/mydomain"/> in IE and in other browers like
ff/chrome/opera/safari it resolves to "/mydomain" and base tag here
looks like <base href="/ourstory">
however all links resolves perfectly fine in IE and when I click on
any link, it opens perfectly fine with path
http://localhost:8080/mydomain/link1.jsp but the same link when
checked via other browser like FF/Opera/chrome/safari it says page
not found and gives me 404 error.The same link path now looks like
http://localhost:8080/link1.jsp in those browsers.
what is that i am doing wrong here ?
Hi, Kiran-
The base tag "specifies an absolute URI that acts as the base URI for
resolving relative URIs". To me, that means you should include the
protocol and the domain name (e.g.
href="http://your.domain.name/your.context/path/";). Also, in my
experience, the trailing slash is required by some browsers.
Hope that helps.
