Problem with relative path in configuration file

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I have a problem with relative path. That's why I request your help. Because 
it's a WAR app, i need to use relative path in my configuration. For example, 
the final URL of the application is www.company.com/customer#1.

in configMathMLEditor.xml : <property 
id="urlGenerateImage">../../../../os/mathMLPicture</property>

mathMLPicture=servlet to save the picture and generate the path. 
This servlet generate the url "os/doc?filename="+name+"."+type;"

But the editor send a bad url to the editor 
example : 
"_mce_src="../os/os/doc?filename=21D2A817-B2F5-62E4-1164-B1DBE9BF0F35.JPG" 
src="../../../os/os/doc?filename=21D2A817-B2F5-62E4-1164-B1DBE9BF0F35.JPG"

I think that the SWF interpret the URL generate by the servlet as a relative 
URL to "urlGenerateImage" path.

I hope not to be too confusing in my explanation.

BR.

Hi 

The swf takes from the server the absolute or relative path and always generate 
the absolue path (using the property urlGenerateImage).
But in property id="urlGenerateImage" I expected to have an absolute path.

Do this limit you?

thank you
alex

Hi

It's limit me because I have many different deploiement configuration and for 
example the path to the servlet (or JSP) which generate the picture can be =
www.company1.com/path1/path2/os/generatePicture
www.company2.com/path1/os/generatePicture
www.company3.com/os/generatePicture

That's why I define the property as a relative path to the servlet.

Hello,
I am very annoyed because I tested several times and I always see the same 
behavior: ok with http and bad  with https. It's very strange: (

Again thank you for the efforts
