title: Problem with paths when deploying my web app
body: <p>I am having big issues deploying my web app to Tomcat 5.5</p>
  
  <p>My server side code must access files found under a directory parallel to my WEB-INF folder.</p>
  
  <p>When on developement mode, a simple relative path (mydirectory/myfile) works prefectly.</p>
  
  <p>When deployed, the sayed path does not work anymore I dont know why.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to make it work without using any absolute path?</p>
  
  <p>Here is my War directory</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>War
  <ul>
  <li>WEB-INF</li>
  <li>Mydirectory
  <ul>
  <li>Myfile</li>
  </ul></li>
  <li>Mywebbapp.html</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul>
