The context root is set to fibo in application.xml

With these settings, i call the JSp with URLs like

http://localhost:8080/fibo/index.jsp

now when i call the servlet from index.jsp
say
<form action="/logon" method="post" >

the above url get changed to

http://localhost:8080/logon


can any one please help me in figuring out y it get changed even though i have specifiied the context root

i tried even specifing the context root in jboss-web.xml

but still i have the same problem

thank you

Remove '/'from action ie give <form action="logon" method="post" >.I think it will work.

tried using just logon in form action

<form action="logon" method="post" >

but still it overwrites the url
