I am currently at this URL localhost:8080/Test/students/Steve
The page from that URL displays some info about Steve and a link that goes to teachers.
<a href="teachers/all">Click to view all teachers</a>
When I click the link it goes to localhost:8080/Test/students/teachers/all
I want localhost:8080/Test/teachers/all
How can I do that?
I managed to do it with
<a href="../teachers/all">Click to view teachers</a>
but .... is there another way to do this?
