relative paths under Maverick...

I started playing wqith maverick under windows 98.  When I first wrote 
the web app (pre-Maverick)with the following directory struture:

root/
|---jsp/
|---images/
|---styles/

I referenced the images from my jsp (under the jsp directory) like this:

../images/imagename.gif

When I refactored the app under win98 Maverick, I had to chnage the 
refernce:

images/imagename.gif

I assumed that is becuase Maverick somehow chnaged the relative path of 
my jsp to the root?

But then I moved th app to linux, and now even under Maverick I have to 
chnage the reference back to:

../images/imagename.gif

What am I missing here?
