[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-1160) facelets template with css and subdirs do not render page in design and runtime

Ronald van Kuijk commented on JBIDE-1160:
-----------------------------------------

I cannot use relative paths because the css (defined in the template) is loaded relative to the page, not relative to the template. This is a facelets 'thing' not something I specifically want. So because of this, the relative path is/should always be different and that is not possible.  e.g. style/style.css for the home.xhtml, ../style/style.css for page1.1.xhtml and page2.1.xhtml)

I could use/make multiple templates that inherit from one another in one way or another, but that is also additional maintenance 

Being able to set properties in EL would be great.  Bij /view you mean what currently is the WTP WebContent dir? That is already 'ignored'

> I have a (seam) project which uses facelets. The folder structure is like this:
> root
>   |- layout
>   |       |- template.xhtml
>   |- style
>   |       |- style.css
>   |- folder1
>   |       |- page1.1.xhtml
>   |- folder2
>   |       |- page2.1.xhtml
>   |- home.xhtml
> All pages reference this template in a ui:composition tag. The template contains a link to the css like 
> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="/style/style.css" />
> This way, all pages look good when designing them. 
> But when I publish my app on a none root folder in my appserver e.g. http://localhost:8080/myApp 
> none of the pages use the stylesheet. It is loaded from /style instead of /myApp/style
> Using
> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="style/style.css" />  (no initial slash in the href)
> only the homepage looks good in both design time and runtime
> Getting all the pages working runtime, I changed the link to
> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/style/style.css" />
> This works great in runtime, but makes designing the pages in the correct look and feel impossible. 
> It would be great if the designer could 'ignore' the #{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath} part of the href. so pages look good both design and runtime.
