try this (in web.xml)
<context-param>
<param-name>SecretAgent</param-name>
<param-value>007</param-value>
</context-param>
And then from a servlet (or JSP):
String agent = getServletContext().getInitParameter("SecretAgent");
and the following will be true:
(agent == "007")
For more info the API docs are always the best place
(javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig,
javax.servlet.ServletContext)
Getting a ServletContext is always direct as the interface
javax.servlet.Servlet does not provide a getServletContext method so
you'd have to do
Servlet.getServletConfig().getServletContext(), however the class
GenericServlet does provide a getServletContext() method (which is
just sugar)

Ring the bells that still can ring.
Forget the perfect offering.
There's a crack in everything.
It's how the light gets in.
