    <p>In fact, I am writing <strong>a maven project with spring</strong>.Everything is ok until I want to <strong>import my css file</strong>.Here is my web.xml(<strong>only the servlet part</strong>):</p> <pre><code>&lt;servlet&gt; &lt;servlet-name&gt;mvc-dispatcher&lt;/servlet-name&gt; &lt;servlet-class&gt;org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet&lt;/servlet-class&gt; &lt;init-param&gt; &lt;param-name&gt;contextConfigLocation&lt;/param-name&gt; &lt;param-value&gt;/WEB-INF/mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml&lt;/param-value&gt; &lt;/init-param&gt; &lt;load-on-startup&gt;1&lt;/load-on-startup&gt; &lt;/servlet&gt; &lt;servlet-mapping&gt; &lt;servlet-name&gt;mvc-dispatcher&lt;/servlet-name&gt; &lt;url-pattern&gt;*.do&lt;/url-pattern&gt; &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then I visit my page on this url:</p> <pre><code>http://localhost:8080/hello.do?method=reg </code></pre> <p>However, I have got a problem:<strong>style.css is 404 Not Found</strong></p> <p>so, I have searched some file and then I got a method:add some configuration in my servlet.xml(my servlet is <strong>mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml</strong>):</p> <pre><code>&lt;mvc:resources mapping="resources/**" location="/WEB-INF/resources/" /&gt; &lt;mvc:default-servlet-handler /&gt; </code></pre> <p>As you see my css file is under "/WEB-INF/resources/".But,the problem still exists.At last, I know one thing:</p> <blockquote> <p>static resources cannot be accessed while servlet is mapped on an URL pattern of / or /*</p> </blockquote> <p>So I change my <strong>web.xml</strong> to this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;servlet-mapping&gt; &lt;servlet-name&gt;mvc-dispatcher&lt;/servlet-name&gt; &lt;url-pattern&gt;/user/*&lt;/url-pattern&gt; &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt; </code></pre> <p>Finally, the problem is totally solved,but this makes me more puzzled,<strong>why tomcat can not access static resources(js, css) while mapping a front controller servlet on an URL pattern of **.do or / or /*</strong></p> <p><strong>update(Dec 30 '13):</strong></p> <p>My application is this:</p> <pre><code>MyApplication pom.xml src test main java com.roger.spring controller UserController.java dao impl UserDaoImpl.java UserDao.java domain User.java service impl UserService.java UserService.java webapp WEB-INF applicationContext.xml dao.xml db.properties mvc-dispatcher-servlet.xml service.xml web.xml pages index.jsp taglib.jsp user login.jsp reg.jsp profile.jsp resources css style.css js calendar.js </code></pre>

    1. COThis statement `static resources cannot be accessed while servlet is mapped on an URL pattern of / or /*` is wrong.

    2. COIn fact I am not that clear about this, so I tried to find more articles about this these days.Finally, I find some, but it is a shame to say I cannot understand them totally.But I can tell you how I know this:[How to access static resources when using default servlet](http://stackoverflow.com/a/8717371/2849157) and [Bug 50026 - DefaultServlet serves META-INF and WEB-INF from root when remapped on /folder/*](https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50026#c2).One thing I am sure is that when I use / or /* or \*.do I can not access my css file,but it wroks when I use /user/*.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
