Hi, 
        Pertaining to recent posts, can someone please describe how 
session or application are defined in a servlet please? In JSP syntax 
there is no problem but in the method in the .java servlet below: 

public class LoadMyServletAtStartup implements ServletContextListener {
 
  public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) {
 
    Hashtable style_index = new Hashtable();
 
    style_index.put("element1", "ONE");
    style_index.put("element2", "TWO");
 
    application.setAttribute("style_index", style_index);
 
    } 

it is failing to compile:

unable to resolve symbol
application.setAttribute("style_index", style_index);
^
1 Error

many thanks for your help

Paul.
