I have web application on TomCat 4.1.18. I am using a couple of images in my application. I am setting the 'img' tags' src property as an absolute path..like: file:///E:\folder1\images\sample_logo.gif I want to use a relative path. How is it possible? Please indicate if I need to make any configuration changes? OR Is it only a change in the SRC attribute of IMG tag

You can use a relative URL to define the source of the image. This is typically relative to the directory that your page/JSP is in. In a typical web-application the images should be held in a sub-directory of your application directory in the web-apps directory. In a production environment you would store all of the pages, classes, images etc in a WAR file with the equivalent internal structure.

Your src attribute of your img tag would simply be something like "images/myimage.jp". This assumes you have an images subdirectory in your webapp directory or webapp jar.

This is certainly not Tomcat specific. Should it not be moved to the HTML forum? bear

Well, (I am a newbie) The only reason I put my question here was.. I am using Tomcat AppServer. I did not know if I needed to make any configuration changes too... (even now, I am not sure if I have to make configuration changes. I guess I need not..) thanks,
