I am trying to display an image on a jsp
.
My image file is located at
MyApp/WebContent/images/logo.jpg
And my JSP pages are located at
MyApp/WebContent/WEB-INF/view/home.jsp
I have already tried to use the image by
<'img src="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/images/logo.jpg" />
and
<'img src="<'c:url value='<%=request.getContextPath()%>/images/logo.jpg'></c:url></img>
Is this issue something because of my location hierarchy where I have placed my image?
Really appreciate your help. Thank you.
UPDATE:
I've found the solution to my problem in:
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/spring/spring_static_pages_example.htm
I just have to use resource mapping in my servlet.xml
.
I really appreciate all of your kind answers. :)
Any static resource is also look for a URL Mapping in spring mvc, so static resources should be defined in the springmvc-servlet.xml
.
Add the following entry to your MVC configuration. I assume that your static files in resources
folder.
<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" />
then static files can be accessible from the page.
<img src="/resources/images/logo.jpg" />
To avoid to have to indicate explicitly the context path you can use jstl core and do it like that
<img src="<c:url value="/images/logo.jpg"/>"/>
You can also check this thread about spring ressource and path
Spring 3 MVC resources and tag <mvc:resources />
try
<img src="/MyApp/WebContent/images/logo.jpg" />
Even though it is a Spring MVC app, it should still deploy as a normal webapp. Check your deployment to make sure, and also use the browser to test loading.
To make it work I had to do
in spring config:
<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" />
In JSP:
<spring:url value="/resources/images" var="images" />
<img src="${images}/back.png"/>
I put images folder under WEB-INF directory, after did fully configuration in the spring-dispatcher-servlet.xml file, I used this img src:< img src="projectname/../images/logo.jpg" /> in my jsp page, images display finally.
in springmvc-servlet.xml you should add <mvc:resources location="/WEB-INF/images/" mapping="/images/**" />
and in jsp <img src="images/logo.jpg" />
and you should create a folder under web-inf which is named images and in the web.xml your servlet mapping shoul be like that <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
.
