Where and how to add CSS in a Dynamic Web Project in Eclipse?

Question

I tried a normal test project to check if CSS is applying to the JSP page. But, no matter where I put my css file in the hierarchy, it is not working. Where to place the css file and how to include the tag in JSP?

this is my Project hierarchy

I wrote a simple

    <link href="css/grayscale.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

to include css file.

my css file only consists of a test style to change paragraph style.

Please Help :(

In the same location of your JSP file, create a CSS directory (named css) in which you create your CSS file. To access it try using "/css/grayscale.css"

Nope :/ Is there anything I should add in my dispatcher servlet? – Nymeria123 Mar 24 '16 at 16:56
I don't see any relation between the dispatcher servlet and the css, but it may be the cause... – achref Mar 24 '16 at 18:13
