    Hi,

    to add all .gif files to the PB.project:

      From the menu choose
    Window->Preferences->WOLips->Projectbuilder->WOAppResourceInclude. Add
    the include pattern "*.gif" without the ". Restart Eclipse. Right click
    on the project root and select WOLips->Update PB.project. Open
    WOBuilder and.....

    What happens behind the scenes? WOBuilder takes the list of resources
    from the PB.project. If this list is empty you have to enter the stuff
    in the WOBuilder manually. If the WOApplication runs under rapid
    turnaround mode, it takes also the info from the PB.project.

    We place our webserver resources into the webserver document root.
    WOBuilder is smart enough to load and display the images from the
    WebServer. Don't forget that each WOImage is a full transaction and
    takes much more time and resources compared against the delivery by the
    webserver. We prefer to use the img tag instead:
    <img src="/ic/img/top_right_corner.gif" width="38" height="61">

    WOBuilder will display the images if your local webserver is running
    and the image exist.

    Ulrich
