Clueless on request.getContextPath()

859702Aug 29 2011 — edited Aug 31 2011
Hi, I am invoking the applet in a jsp as shown

<%
String contextPath=request.getContextPath();
%>


<APPLET CODE = "EmbeddedViewerApplet.class" CODEBASE = "<%=contextPath%>/applets" ARCHIVE = "ReportApplet.jar" WIDTH = "100%" HEIGHT = "90%"></XMP>
<PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = "EmbeddedViewerApplet.class" >
<PARAM NAME = CODEBASE VALUE = "<%=contextPath%>/applets" >
<PARAM NAME = ARCHIVE VALUE = "ReportApplet.jar" >

<PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.2.2">
<PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="false">
<PARAM NAME = "REPORT_URL" VALUE ="<%=contextPath%>/GetJasperPrintObject">

</APPLET>


My server is running at the instance/context http://server/a/b where b is the context name

However, When I see the rendered HTML, the contextPath is printed with difference

At first line, it rendered /a/b/applets
At subsequent lines, it just printed /b/applets and /b/GetJasperPrintObject


Can you guys help in finding the error/problem with the code? Why is that the request.getContextPath() iis printing differently at different places?

This really has nothing to do with SQL Developer (the subject of this forum). It is a much better fit in SQL & PL/SQL.
And just as a side comment, storing 'age' as data is a flawed design. The 'age' of everyone and every thing is increasing by the day, if not by the second. What is your plan to keep 'age' current? Better to store 'date of birth' and the calculate 'age' when needed at run-time.

The 'age' of everyone and every thing is increasing by the day, if not by the second.
Sometimes the age stops increasing.

Pour me one!
Of course, that's not actually the age, but the amount of time it was 'aged' in the barrel before bottling.
