Hi, I'm having trouble accessing an image I'd like to display in a
WOImageButton. Until now, I've only been able to generate a '?'
mark image. According to the apple website, the filename
attribute of WOImageButton is as follows:
filename - Path to the image relative to the WebServerResources
directory.
I've performed a system search and unfortunately, have 14
different folders entitled "WebServerResources." All of these are
within my main 'WebObjects' folder, however... some are contained
within "JavaEOGeneration.framework" or
"JavaWOExtensions.framework," etc...
Can anyone tell me where I need to place my image files to be
called by a WOImageButton?
filename is the name of a file within your WebServerResources. Use
the src binding if you want to give a path within your webserver
docroot. To use filename, the image should be within your project,
and in the Web Server target. This means it will be deployed into
the /WebObjects folder in your docroot, in a subfolder with the
name of your app (and further subfolders). The reason for this is
that it is part of the localisation system used by WebObjects - and
the documentation seems to me to be rather deceptive.
Along these lines, I would like to use static paths to images and CSS
files that work both in development and in deployment. Is there some
magic I can do for this? It seems a bit of an over kill to use a
WOImage for the images (and I believe there is a Project Wonder
component for CSS) if they are static and have no access
restrictions. Ideally, I would be able to put the entire hierarchy in
my WOLips project directory and reference them from there. Maybe on
deployment, I could have Apache alias to that directory...
