I use a Mac Mini as my development server. It runs Apache and my other
servers needed to develop sites locally. When I set up a new site I do the
following:
1) Create a new virtual host for that site, with the URL of
local.<mydomain>.com
2) On my workstation (PC) I create a host file entry pointing to my
development server:
local.<mydomain>.com 192.138.0.5
What this allows me to do is to use absolute pathing:
/images/someimage.gif
And have it be pointing to the correct location.
Just throwing it out. The same thing can obviously be accomplished if you're
running Apache on your local machine.

Subject: [jQuery] Re: Absolute Image location
awesome, /mytrail/images/down.gif works, only problem now I need to solve
is if I flatten this war file and install it on the domain itself(i.e at
http://localhost instead of http://localhost/mytrial) , then I need to
change the javascript to /images/down.gif
Thank you Richard, Brian, for solving my problem.
