I missed the full details of your original post, but is there any reason the servlet *must* retrieve the schema through an HTTP request? What about making the file available off the classpath, and using getResourceAsStream()? (Google for examples, there are plenty.) If it's an XML doc that's calling the schema, you could use a custom EntityResolver to do the classpath-loading bit I described above. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
