Re: JSP using jar file content

this is just a repost... having problems with the listserv

Does anyone have any advice on how to bundle up common headers/footers that are 
just plain html into a jar/war that can be used across multiple dynamic web 
applications without bundling them in all of the applications?


What I have so far is a jar file with common headers and footers, as well as 
some classes, that will be used across multiple applications.  I have set up a 
shared library for the jar in WAS Express 5.0, added this to the classloader 
and have verified that the jsp can import the package. 

The problem is I can't seem to get any .html files from the jar included into 
the jsp.  The jsp only seems to be able to include files from it's own 
WebContent directory.  I really don't want to have to bundle this common jar 
with every application, but it seems like my whole approach is wrong.  Any 
advice is appreciated, I'm a newbie.
