Is request.getContextPath() necessary?

843836Feb 4 2004 — edited Apr 18 2008

I used to start a URL with request.getContextPath() for navigating any JSP files inside of the application. Since I can't pass it into a Javascript, I have a URL without it. The approach seems working so far. Does that mean that it isn't necessary to start a URL with request.getContextPath() ?
