  | 
  |   | 
  |   |   @Create
  |   |   public void setup() {
  |   |     request = (HttpServletRequest) facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequest();
  |   |   }    
  |   |   
  |   |   
  |   |   @Factory("basePath")
  |   |   public void loadBasePath()
  |   |   {
  |   |      basePath = request.getScheme() + "://" +
  |   |                 request.getServerName() + ":" + 
  |   |                 request.getServerPort() + request.getContextPath() + "/";
  |   |   }

led to me re-organising my code a lot:

  | <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" ref="#{basePath}/xmlhttp/css/xp/xp.css" />
  | <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="#{basePath}/css/risingstars.css" />
  | 

Allowing me to move a lot of pages that users should not access under WEB-INF


  | template="/WEB-INF/pages/template.xhtml">
  | 


Perhaps it obvious to you lot, but saved me a whole heap of headache.
