I am waiting on a book I ordered a while ago related =
to JSF but they take about a month to get here from Amazon. During =
development my application contained no bugs during user case testing.I =
am now seeing issues related to a graphic table banner that uses a few =
commandlink jsf tags that take (or are meant to) users to various areas =
of my site. The problem is I get a 404 when interacting with the image =
links and my suspicions aree that the root cause is due to 2 reasons =
possibly:
1) commandlink does not start a new request thereby causing the url to =
be appended to existing url making it incorrect.
2) I am having to deploy an exploded war because my hosting provider =
fails to see that I simply can not upload my war and start it.
any suggestions as to why this is happening? The code behind this =
is....=20
