Are these tags OK to have with no Internet Connection?

I have a user who's having trouble with a Struts JSP.

He is worried that the tags at the top of the JSP "require" an Internet connection. However, I've tried them with no connection and all works OK?

Should these tags point, instead, to a Struts tag lib internal to the project or are they OK as is?

Thanks in advance.

Mike

Notice that those tags are URIs. (At least, that's what the name of the attribute is.) People tend to confuse those things with URLs. A URI is a Uniform Resource Identifier, whereas a URL is a Uniform Resource Locator. As the latter article says, the two concepts are frequently confused.

In short, the URI is a name for a resource. That resource doesn't have to be located at any particular place; if it did, that would make the URI be a URL.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your reply. I was ust trying to confirm that no internet connection means no problem, and you've confirmed -- since URI != URL.

Thanks!!!

Mike
