belief that it should load from anywhere on the WAR's classpath, which seems
to be the default way to access "resources" if you read docs like this on
Tomcat's site. Little confusing, but hey, I'm learning something (I think

In your case, I believe it gets the file from your jsp file directory, which
may be the doc root.
