Image path question

[Billy Ng <kw...@earthlink.net>]

I am building an app that has lots of <TD> contains the backgrpound images.  In the <html:img> tag I can use the page attribute without defining the app name, but the in the <TD>'s background attribute, I need to add the app name in the path like "/myApp/img/imgae.gif".  If I don't want to write the custom tag to generate the <TD> tag, what other option do I have?  In additional, this program will be the only one app that will on the intranet.  If I can map the http://localhost:8080/myApp to http://localhost/, it may solve the problem.  Can I do it in Struts? or this will be the Tomcat or Apache thing?

Thanks!

you mean like this?
<td background="<html:rewrite...

No that won't solve the problem, but to do it name your .war file ROOT.war
(you know, like the one that ships with Tomcat ;)
