Using a Tomcat 6.0 server, I'm trying to reference an image file that's not in the root directory of the application, but I get a 404 message that says the requested resource...is not available. (If I run the same program from Windows Explorer by double-clicking on it, I can use relative and absolute references and it works fine.) Is there a way to access the file and display it with the tag, using a Tomcat server?

Take a look at JSTL core, more specifically at the url tag. It will dynamically add the context root in the links http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17802_01/products/products/jsp/jstl/1.1/docs/tlddocs/c/tld-summary.html
