Servlet init parameters are passed to a web application in the web.xml
file. Below is an example I use to pass the class name of the jdbc
driver to use to my servlets.
<context-param>
<param-name>dbclassname</param-name>
<param-value>jdbc.driver.class.name</param-value>
<description>The JDBC Driver to use</description>
</context-param>
I can now access the value of dbclassname whereever I want in my servlet
like this : getServletContext().getInitparameter("dbclassname")
Hope this helps,
