The first thing you should do is read the servlet specification. I don't know whether Jaguar supports version 2.2 or 2.3. Hopefully it's 2.3. The "servlet" element in the "web.xml" deployment descriptor has an optional "load-on-startup" element. The presence of this element specifies that this servlet will be created and "init"ed on startup of the application (which should happen when the web server starts). =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
