No, no, no - there is *never* any guarantee that getRealPath() will return 
anything.  (Personally, I think it should be deprecated; it's bloody 
dangerous.)  Use getResourceAsStream(), as previously suggested.  Using 
<init-param> is certainly a good idea if you don't want to hard-code the path 
in the servlet code.
