problem with showing an image
Hey, I load the url of an image from a properties file
in a jsp. The image doesn't show in my browser
(phoenix), when I look at the source code the image
url points to the right direction. When I save the
source code as a static html and open it in phoenix
(using file://) the image shows up. Now when I put the
same static html file in my webapp dir, and look the
at the page using http://localhost... the image
doesn't show up. (there isn't even a placeholder or
some indication that the image wasn't found)
This is the html code generated by my jsp:
<img align="left"
src="/opt/tomcat/webapps/shadowbb/images/shadowlogo.jpg"
alt="forumlogo">
Does Tomcat handle serving images differently or am I
doing something else wrong?

The source of your image has to be inside the context of your web application
(or atleast the server) for Tomcat to be able to show it, it is a security
feature.
Most people usually have a structure similar to the below:
TOMCAT_HOME
/webapps
/mywebapp
/media
/images
shadowlogo.jpg
/css
/WEB-INF
/classes
/lib
In this example your image source would be src="media/images/shadowlogo.jpg".

Change the image location to a relative address starting from your
application location
Src="/images/shadowlogo.jpg" or Src="images/shadowlogo.jpg"
