Hi Jen,
--From the dtd
<!--
The context-param element contains the declaration of a web
application's servlet context initialization parameters.
-->
<!ELEMENT context-param (param-name, param-value, description?)>
--this are parameters that apply to the application scope it looks like
to me
<!--
The web-app element is the root of the deployment descriptor for
a web application
-->
<!ELEMENT web-app (icon?, display-name?, description?, distributable?,
context-param*, servlet*, servlet-mapping*, session-config?,
mime-mapping*, welcome-file-list?, error-page*, taglib*,
resource-ref*, security-constraint*, login-config?, security-role*,
env-entry*, ejb-ref*)>
in your app grab the values from the application scope.
Let us know if it works for you.
