You can write a ContextListener and configure it in web.xml. I have one that retrieves things from the database and places them in Application scope. You could read from a .properties file, or do anything you need to do when the app starts up. -- Wendy Smoak --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
