Thanks, it worked with using the getContextPath().
Other people suggested just using the path relative
from my webapp, but that is what I tried first, and
Tomcat would always replace my url with:
controller_files/shadowlogo.html. Whatever I put into
the <img src =" ">, Tomcat cut off the extension,
appended .html and put controller_files in front of
it. (all my requests go through a Servlet named
Controller)



set this thing to
<img align="left"
src="<%= request.getContextPath()
%>/images/shadowlogo.jpg" 
alt="forumlogo">

Thanks 
guru

Subject: problem with showing an image


Hey, I load the url of an image from a properties file
in a jsp. The image doesn't show in my browser
(phoenix), when I look at the source code the image
url points to the right direction. When I save the
source code as a static html and open it in phoenix
(using file://) the image shows up. Now when I put the
same static html file in my webapp dir, and look the
at the page using http://localhost... the image
doesn't show up. (there isn't even a placeholder or
some indication that the image wasn't found)
This is the html code generated by my jsp:
<img align="left"
src="/opt/tomcat/webapps/shadowbb/images/shadowlogo.jpg"
alt="forumlogo">
Does Tomcat handle serving images differently or am I
doing something else wrong?
