title: can't access to my css file in my jsp
body: <p>i have some issue accessing my CSS file. I did search, but i can't figure out what's incorrect.</p>
  
  <p>web.xml :</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;servlet-mapping&gt;
      &lt;servlet-name&gt;spring&lt;/servlet-name&gt;
      &lt;url-pattern&gt;*.mvc&lt;/url-pattern&gt;
  &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>my JSP :</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
  pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%&gt;
  &lt;%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions" prefix="fn"%&gt;
  &lt;%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%&gt;
  
  &lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"&gt;
  &lt;html&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;Portail web &lt;/title&gt;
  &lt;link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
  href="../GN/css/portail.css" /&gt;
  &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"&gt;
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
   &lt;h1&gt;TEST&lt;/h1&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>my css :</p>
  
  <pre><code>@CHARSET "ISO-8859-1";
  body
  {
  background-color:blue;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My architecture :</p>
  
  <p>JSP is at : <code>webapp/WEB-INF/FR/JSP/portail.jsp</code></p>
  
  <p>CSS is at : <code>webapp/WEB-INF/GN/css/portail.css</code></p>
  
  <p>I tried absolute path too, but nothing work (no style applied on my JSP).</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT :</p>
  
  <p>If i do <code>&lt;%@ include file="/WEB-INF/GN/css/portail.css"%&gt;</code> it prints out my css, so the path is good but the style does not apply to my jsp :/</p>
