Hi,

I am reading HTML template files into a string field in the init block
of my servlet so that the file I/O is done only once.  I have specified
the entire path to the files, starting at the server root level.
However, if any piece of the path changes, I will need to change my
servlet code, which is not desirable.

I know that I could pass a startup paramater to the servlet with the
path, but changing the paramater value is still a manual intervention.

How can I retrieve the server root directory and/or path information
about my servlet while it is still in the init block?

I have seen several examples of doing this once a request has been
received, but not before.

Thanks,
John
