Hi, everyone, This might seem a bit elementary. But I see so many experts are so kind there answering questions from such new comers like me. So I decide to post it here. My question is : I found the Servlet.init() method is where a ServletConfig object is passed say normally to the super class's init() method and everything seems ok... This way other Servlet can call this servlet's public method by first invoking the Servlet.getServletConfig().getServletContext().getServlet(servletname) method. I understand it that the JAVA Container is responsble for creating the ServletConfig object. All these seem to come from thin air. What on earth is a ServletConfig,a ServletContext or a PageContext? What informations are stored or can be stored in these magic objects. Which and what can be manipulated by the programmer? all are beyond me. could anyone give me some kind explanation?
