Adding javascript to struts 2 jsp

[Abhilash Chander]

Hi All,
I'm trying to add my javascript file into my jsp page but it is not working. Im using struts 2.0.11 version and code I'm using is

   <script language="JavaScript" src="checkDate.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 

javascript file and jsp are in the same folder. Can anybody help me out. Thanks in advance.

regards

I'm trying to figure out what this question has to do with struts. Are you requesting the JSP directly?? With a URL which looks something like this: http://localhost:8080/Context/page.jsp or are you sending your request to a struts action?? Where you put the JSP and JS file on the server doesn't matter as the browser sends a separate request for the JS file.... Please tell us the URL that you are using to request this JSP and the directory structure where the JSP and JS files are...

Hi Abhilash Chander,

Have you checked the path of javascript file?? If you are using struts2 ,then build you can build script tag using <s:url> tag or do remember to add context path.

Thanks Anbarasu, Can you give me an example, when you say the context path. What you mean here is the absolute path of the file. ???

Hi,

1)

<link href="<s:url value="/css/style.css"/>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

2)

<script type="text/javascript" src="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/Js/xxxx.js"></script>

Note:
if you use struts2 url tag, it adds context path by default.
