Problems with RequestMapping

[bobby1112]

Dear friends,
I'm new of the Spring and i'm developing the my first application with MVC.

I have two controllers, homeController wich contains two methods

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/")
	public String showHomePage(Map<String,Object> model){}

@RequestMapping(value="/categories/{nameCategoria}", method=RequestMethod.GET){ return "homePage"}
public String showCategoriesPage(){return "CategoryPage"}

and the RegistrationController

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/registration")
public class RegistrationController{

@RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET , params="newUser")
	public  String createNewUser(Model model){ return RegistrationPage }

}

In the my HomePage i have a two links

<div align="justify">
<a href="registration?newUser" style="color: blue;">registration</a>  
<a href="/categories/nameCategoria" >	categories</a>

</div>

if i click first on link categories I will return /categories/nameCategoria url Up to here everything is ok, but if after i click on registration link i will return /categories/registration?newUser but it's a bad url for the my RegistrationController,

while if i click first on registration link, i will return /registration?newUser url which is a sound url for the my RegistrationController

How can i resolve this problem?

I suggest you take a look at your url. Your registration url should be prefixed with / which means from the root if you leave it out it means relative to the current url.
