I am still a bit confused. I do not know what the servlet-name and servlet-class are
referring
to?
The Jsp Page it called TopNav.jsp and the bean is called PictureBrowserBean. I want
to have the
bean PictureBrowserBean be able to access the extra parameter. In this case, the
location of the
properties file. Here i my guess at what I would do
<servlet>
<servlet-name>TopNav</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>PictureBrowserBean</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>propFile</param-name>
<param-value>/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips-dev</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
Is this correct? I am going to try this, but I am a bit short on time right now.
Thanks again
for your help.
