Alright so since we're talking about static resources that could easily be served by my servlet container, the problem actually is getting the /img/ directory into the context root.
I put this in my pom.xml: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.0</version> <configuration> <webResources> <resource> <!-- this is relative to the pom.xml directory --> <directory>src\main\resources</directory> </resource> </webResources> </configuration> </plugin> What this does is take the content of \src\main\resources and copy it into the context root when 'mvn install'-ing. This works fine, the directory structure in \target\mysoftware-1.0\ looks like this: mysoftware-1.0\img mysoftware-1.0\WEB-INF mysoftware-1.0\META-INF Generating a WAR file with either the Sysdeo Tomcat Plugin for Eclipse or with Maven works. All images work when serving this WAR in a container. However using 'mvn jetty:run' or running a Tomcat 5.5 server throught the plugin in Eclipse does not work. I do not know which directory Jetty uses for its context root, but my Tomcat Plugin is configured to use /target/mysoftware-1.0/ as its root. The Tomcat server functions nicely this way, and reflects all changes I make in my java or html files. But the images are broken! Looking in: \workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpwebapps\mysoftware all I see are META-INF and WEB-INF Where did the img directory go? It gets skipped, but why? This turned out to be a bit more of a plumbing question than a Wicket problem, but I hope you will help me nonetheless!
