Use spring JSTL tags to include external script files or style sheets. First you should include the the taglib in JSP as follows.

<%@ taglib uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags" prefix="spring"%>

Then you can include extenal script file using,

<script type="text/javascript" src="<spring:url value="/js/jquery.js"/>"></script>
