I am new to J2EE and Web development. Here is my issue: I want to include angular.js in the webpage.
Here is the version that works:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<script src=".2.1/angular.min.js"></script>
<title>Lets Meet Up!</title>
</head>
But I also want to have some local javascript files, and hopefully, I want to import the angularjs in the local directory
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<script src="WEB-INF/lib/angular/angular.js"></script>
<title>Lets Meet Up!</title>
</head>
The the page is unable to run the javascript.
My stack is Tomcat, Spring MVC, Spring, J2EE I put the angularjs source in AppRoot/WebContents/WEB-INF/lib/angular
Anyone can help? THanks!!

Reset to default 11Files in WEB-INF are inaccessible.
Put angular.min.js and all other static assets at the top level of your war file. Or better yet in some nice folder like js/angular/angular.min.js at the top level.
Then do this
<script src="js/angular/angular.min.js"></script>
Depending on your needs you might want to consider serving your assets from a CDN, but that's another story altogether.
Don't put them into WEB-INF, that folder is for the stuff that you do not want to have directly served.
Put it next to WEB-INF
+- WEB-INF
+- static
