Hi, I created a base actionservlet class that in its init method, the first thing it does is call super.init(). In this base class I set up common settings for all my web apps. I then created a series of classes that all extend my base ActionServlet class and in their init method the first thing they call is super.init. The problem is that as my webapps start the init methods in all three classes are being called twice? Is this correct? Alex
