context rewriting for CSS path

imcmahon Jun 27, 2008 4:53 AM

I have /layout/layout.xhtml which is my facelet template, and in any jsf rendered tag I can use absolute paths and it'll all work regardless of the web path... however, the css <link> tag isn't jsf rendered, so I don't get that benefit. I know this is a problem that has gone unsolved in the past, but since seam folks seem to be solving all the other quirky problems, has anyone come up with a solution for this one?

as a note, I don't have <link> inside an <f:view> block, and I'd rather not.

Got it....

Use the Ajax4JSF/RichFaces solution that comes bundled with Seam

<a:loadStyle src="/stylesheet/theme.css"/>

Doesnt work. Renders nothing. Tried wrapping it in f:view with no luck.

I even tried sticking it down inside the actual body content's f:view, and it still renders nothing.

Did you include it in the header?...Works fine for me..

it was a deployment issue again... got it sorted out and now that's working great.

Thanks again, Dan!
