So say I want to do this the right way, and parse web.xml to find the

You're going to be 99.999% safe assuming that the config file is located under /WEB-INF/bluedragon/bluedragon.xml. But if you want to do it the "right" way ... ;-)

Can you explain what braindead thing I'm doing that makes even this
simple XmlSearch not find anything:

Having a schema declaration in the top node throws XML searches off--I'm not enough of an xpath guru to know why, but this happens in ColdFusion as well.

Just use the local-name() function and it'll resolve the issue, and this works whether there's a schema declaration or not:
<cfset nodes = XmlSearch(xmlDoc, "//*[local-name()='servlet']") />

Hope that helps.
