[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] RE: include css in xsl
 Hi,
A couple of things:
1. You do realize that anything behind WEB-INF (in a servelet container) is
protected. That is, it is not available to the client.
2. You are using backslashes when you should be using forward slashes:
href="../css/style.css"
Solution:
Put your CSS folder in your docroot and reference by a root relative path:
href="/css/style.css"
you can still use relative paths (perhaps you want to generated pages offline?)
by figuring out where your transformation places the rendered version in your
server's path. I assume you are using a servlet - so you can see what the
url-pattern is and assume that is where your rendered version is in relation to
the CSS.
For example, if you have:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Blah</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.Blah</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup/>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Blah</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Blah</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
in a webapp that is living off of:
http://myserver.com/myapp
you would need a style href like the following:
root relative - href="/myapp/css/style.css"
document relative - href="css/style.css"
best,
-Rob
