Hi David I did it partially this way, and it works. My objects in the js file are executing. <bean:page id="context" property="request"/> <bean:define id="myServletContext">http://<bean:write name="context" property="serverName"/>:<bean:write name="context" property="serverPort"/><bean:write name="context" property="contextPath"/>/</bean:define>
<title>decarta javascript api example</title> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="<bean:write name="myServletContext"/>/extPages/myScripts.js"><!-- --></script> However I still get the "Permission denied to call XMLHttpRequest.open... I thought by putting a jsp:forward outside my WEB-INF and calling it internally from localhost I would avoid that and worry about how to access it from Internet; now I first have to get around this security issue on localhost so I can test and ass-ume it will also allow access from browsers externally.

This doesn't work like the jsp internals that are aware of the context path. --David Nathan Bahr wrote: > hmm what exactly do you need ajax for?
