Static Resources in Spring MVC Java Images CSS and JavaScript

Let's add Static resources like CSS, Images, and JavaScript in our previous spring project. You need to add some additional things for importing JavaScript file in view.

Create a new directory css
Add a new style.css file
Create a new directory img
Add a new image

	data = "";
	submit = function(){
		 
			$.ajax({
				url:'saveOrUpdate',
				type:'POST',
				data:{user_id:$("#user_id").val(),user_name:$('#name').val(),email:$('#email').val()},
				success: function(response){
						alert(response.message);
						load();		
				}				
			});			
	}
	
	delete_ = function(id){		 
		 $.ajax({
			url:'delete',
			type:'POST',
			data:{user_id:id},
			success: function(response){
					alert(response.message);
					load();
			}				
		});
}
	
	edit = function (index){
		$("#user_id").val(data[index].user_id);
		$("#name").val(data[index].user_name);
		$("#email").val(data[index].email);
		
	}
	
	load = function(){	
		$.ajax({
			url:'list',
			type:'POST',
			success: function(response){
					data = response.data;
					$('.tr').remove();
					for(i=0; i<response.data.length; i++){					
						$("#table").append("<tr class='tr'> <td> "+response.data[i].user_name+" </td> <td> "+response.data[i].email+" </td> <td> <a href='#' onclick= edit("+i+");> Edit </a>  </td> </td> <td> <a href='#' onclick='delete_("+response.data[i].user_id+");'> Delete </a>  </td> </tr>");
					}			
			}				
		});
		
	}
