An easy way to get the ServletContext from JSP-page is to use the
Servlet-method getServletContext(). So for getting the context
parameter, add the following code-snipped:
<% String param = getServletContext().getInitParameter("param"); %>
And for then on, you can reference it e.g. by:
<%= param %>
