I referred to many posts but still I was unable to solve this problem.

I have tried putting this css folder in WEB-INF and within views folder as well.
But still the styles are not reflected in the view page.
Here is my servlet-context.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<beans:bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">

<beans:property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</beans:bean>
<context:component-scan base-package="ctc.event.control" />
</beans:beans>
This is my web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

This is my style sheet ExpenseDetailsStyles.css
#ItemDiv1_Table1 {
border: 1px solid black;
}
#ItemDiv1Table2 {
width: 20%;
float: right;
font-size:30px;
}
and my view page.
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ include file="TagIncludes.jsp" %>
<!DOCTYPE html>

<table id="ItemDiv1_Table2">

</td>

</table>
</div>
</form:form>
</body>
</html>
Here is the controller
@Controller
public class ExpenseFormController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/ExpenseDetailsForm.html", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String openForm() {
return "ExpenseDetailsForm";
}
@RequestMapping(value = "/ExpenseDetailsForm.html", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String submitForm() {
return null;
}
}
stacktrace is not an error but a warning.
WARN : org.springframework.web.servlet.PageNotFound - No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/Calculator/
<c:url value="css/ExpenseDetailsStyles.css" />] in DispatcherServlet with name 'appServlet'
I think there is some problem with my uri in the view page and I tried changing it in many different ways.
Can anyone please help me correct the uri and reflect the styles on the view page?
Please comment if any other information pertaining this, is needed.
<servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>appServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>*.css</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping>I think you don't need this now that you added<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/WEB-INF/resources/" />in the xml. - ssn771
