Personally I would find a good tool to automate the task and just change the links. Your solution might work as a temporary solution, but sooner or later I would think the links would need changing anyway. Additionally you might want to take a close look at your code and see if there is any way to reduce the number of places where these resources are referenced.

my links to images,css,js are like below in jsp files;

/images/xxx.jpg
/js/xxx.js
/css/xxx.css

solution is fully re rewriting the url's i know like;

http://www.mydomain.com/images/xxx.jpg

But its hard to change thousands of links and i thought if it is logical or not 
so i looked to a solution at container level.

Subject: Re: How to change(override) application path

How is the jsp composing the relative urls to images and stylesheets?

I typically have jsps reference urls by doing ${pageContext.request.contextPath}/path/to/resource.jpg for example. That fills in the context path and forms a site absolute path to the resource. The jsp can move around and more importantly the URL to it can change without breaking links to resources.

My question is related with java but i think the solution is at the tomcat 
global variables so i need this groups help.

I want my web links to be like www.mydomain.com/album/13

with the help of the front controller at java i will translate the url to 
www.mydomain.com/album.jsp?id=3 and dispatch it to the jsp file...

at web.xml i configured the url pattern like below

<servlet>
  <servlet-name>Controller</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>com.mydomain.Controller</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>Controller</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/album/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Everything is ok if i type the url like mydomain.com/album

But
if i type mydomain.com/album/ or mydomain.com/album/13 my pages are
displayed but the images,css files,js files cannot be imported....This
is because application tries to get the images from like
mycontext/album/images/xxx.gif but in fact the images are under
mycontext/images/xxx.gif


Because of this urlrewriting i have this path problem...So there must be some option i 
will re set exmp: TOMCAT.Application.Path="http://www.mydomain.com/";; everytime 
after recreation of real url and my images and other files will be displayed correctly.

thank you

Burak
