java - images are not loading inside WEB-INF folder? -

i have some.jsp in web-inf folder. inside jsp have below code.

<script type="text/javascript" src="../public/js/jquery-1.4.1.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../public/js/form.js"></script> 

inside form.js have below code:

$('#theform #formprogress').html('<img src="/images/ajax-loader.gif" /> saving&hellip;'); 

ajax-loader.gif in webapp/public/images folder .

but image not loading. please me.

thanks!

your own text answers question: you're using wrong file path:

$('#theform #formprogress').html('<img src="/public/images/ajax-loader.gif" /> saving&hellip;'); 

if image in /public/images, why try loading /images?
