Ryan, > One more question: What is the best method for retrieving the values?
You only have one option: ServletContext.getInitParameter There are, however, some tools that can help you load data that is not String-based. Jakarta commons beanutils package (specifically the 'converters' portion) can help to your string-to-whatever conversions. Hope that helps, -chris
