How to read a parameter in web.xml from Action class

[Frank Burns]

Hi,

>From an Action class, I want to read a parameter specified in the web.xml
file. I thought I could place it in an <init-param> block, within the
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name> element, like this:

    <init-param>
      <param-name>myParamName</param-name>
      <param-value>myParamValue</param-value>
    </init-param>

and then read it within the Action class using:

    String paramValue =
request.getSession().getServletContext().getInitParameter("myParamValue");

But I get null.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Frank.
