The JAR file then goes in /webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>If you go the JAR file route you must change the references to use /res. So a CSS file, foo.css, in a JAR file under META-INF/styles/foo.css would be referred to from an Alfresco tier web script as /alfresco/res/styles/foo.css and from a Share web script as /share/res/styles/foo.css.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Jeff</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 12 Feb 2013 23:27:47 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/where-do-static-files-go/m-p/276046#M229176 jpotts 2013-02-12T23:27:47Z
