I can see why you might want to load on startup, but the ability to actually perform a get when there is not client makes no sense at all to me. What exactly are you planning to achieve by doing such a thing?

I've googled it and haven't found anything that could help solving this problem. I'm probably not the one to think about this but...if you would add the <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> to a servlet, and from the init() method you would somehow try to call the doGet() method, wouldn't that do it? wouldn't that run the servlet at startup? did anybody try this already? I am trying to do this but I'm having some problem creating HttpServletRequest and Response objects so I can call doGet(). So if anyone did this already, pls let me know how this issue can be fixed! 10x a lot! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
