Sorry, I don't know how to do this for a bean. Perhaps someone else who works with beans could help.
Sorry about that. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Pfeiffer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 9:54 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: How to load properties into tomcat 4.0.3? I am still a bit confused. I do not know what the servlet-name and servlet-class are referring to? The Jsp Page it called TopNav.jsp and the bean is called PictureBrowserBean. I want to have the bean PictureBrowserBean be able to access the extra parameter. In this case, the location of the properties file. Here i my guess at what I would do <servlet> <servlet-name>TopNav</servlet-name> <servlet-class>PictureBrowserBean</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>propFile</param-name> <param-value>/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips-dev</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> Is this correct? I am going to try this, but I am a bit short on time right now. Thanks again for your help.
