<@ofbizContentUrl> is taken into account instead of hardwired /images.

Hi All,

In ftl files Use of  <@ofbizContentUrl> is taken into account instead of
hardwired /images.
What is the significance of  "<@ofbizContentUrl>"  instead of hardwired
/images ??

Hey Alex,
IIRC, ofbizContentUrl is defined by the WebSite entity.  This allows
you to easily set a content server that is different from your ofbiz
server.   Tip: if you're using custom content, it's usually easier if
you put them inside your custom webapp.  
ie
ofbizhome/hot-deploy/myComponent/webapp/myWebapp/images/myContent.jpg

if you've copied the web.xml file, you should be able to display your
image by 
src="<@o...@ofbizContentUrl>"
