I have a website project in Eclipse using servlets which is running on Tomcat. In one of the servlets I reference an external stylesheet as such:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />Where would I put this style.css for it to work? I have tried almost every folder in the project directory and in the site directory under Tomcat and it still won’t work.
Answer
I found the solution. As silviud said, the style.css file should go in the root of the application, in this case: $TOMCAT_HOME/wtpwebapps/ProjectName. To get it there it should go in the WebContent folder in eclipse: $PROJECT_HOME/WebContent.
The reason I wasn’t seeing the stylesheet was because I had the main servlet registered for “/” which means that when I requested /style.css, it got the servlet instead.
