Paths to files

Hello,

I'm trying to fine tune some bits on my application running within Orbeon. I've come a little unstuck with regards to relative links for non-HTML files.

For instance, I currently need to use the following to correctly link to the CSS file:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/apps/gazettes/styles/styles.css" />

What I would like to use is:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/gazettes/styles/styles.css" />

I have the following in my Tomcat server.xml file (my Tomcat knowledge it pretty basic):

<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context docBase="orbeon" path="" />
</Host>

Is what I'm asking actually possible and if so any pointers very welcome (or have I missed something basic?).

Thanks

Paul

Re: Paths to files

Paul,

Yes, you don't need to put things in an apps directory.

Between the page-flow controller,
http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-page-flow#basics
and the config/properties-base.xml , you can
specify your own theme, or none, that can "fixup"
url references, etc. To quickly remove the theme,
look for this line in properties-base.xml:

<property as="xs:boolean" name="oxf.epilogue.use-theme"
value="false"/>

Regards,
Hank
