I am developing a website in struts. My folder structure is as follows :

enter image description here

Now, I have a jsp page register.jsp, in which I want to add jquery.validate.js file. I have followed suggestion from the following link :

Can not include javascript file from WEB-INF directory in JSP.

My code was as follows :

<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-html" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-bean" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://struts.apache.org/tags-logic" prefix="logic" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

<title>Insert title here</title>

<script type="text/javascript"  src='<c:url value="/WEB-INF/scripts/jquery.validate.js"/>'></script>

The above code generated the following html :

<script type="text/javascript"  src='/LoginApp/WEB-INF/scripts/jquery.validate.js'></script>

The jsp file could not access the javascript file jquery.validate.js. How can I access it from my jsp file ?

You should move your file jquery.validate.js outside WEB-INF in webapp/scripts as it is somehow a protected directory since resources inside this directory are by default non public, then you will be able to access it using:

<script type="text/javascript" src='<c:url value="/scripts/jquery.validate.js"/>'></script>
