Servlet, JSPs and images...

[Joel Boyd <Jo...@veritas.com>]

I am using Tomcat to run a Servlet, and the Servlet forwards requests, via a
RequestDispatcher, to my JSP pages.
Tomcat is finding the JSP pages, but not the images referenced in them.

My JSP pages are in webapps/myapp and my images are in webapps/myapp/images.
I reference the images using "images/myimage.gif", and it worked before when
I was directly serving up the JSP pages.  Now Tomcat complains that it
cannot find the images:

	/myapp/servlet/images/myimage.gif  returns null

I tried creating a webapps/myapp/servlet/images directory and put all my
images there, but that still did not work.

Does anyone know what is going on here?

Thanks.

Joel Boyd
