The more that I read about relative paths, the more confused I get

[MalCarne]

Can someone help me out with this? This is actually more java specific than jsp, but it's easier to illustrate with the jsp pages. From what I've read, relative paths are relative to where the method is being executed from.

I have a class that should read a text file using a relative path. If the class is called via

http://servername/MyApp/something.jsp,

then from what I've read, the path should be relative to MyApp/. Am I correct in this assumption or am I way off?

This is the last part of a project to be delivered tomorrow and I'm at a complete loss, any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance

In java, it depends from where the program is invoked - not where the root of the package is.
I can't tell you, how to transfer that idea to JSPs.
