Hi James,
You might also read this article, see if it gives you useful ideas on
different approaches to using Velocity over the web.
http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/webapps.html
In particular, you might consider a more complex framework such as Maverick,
Turbine, Struts or Spring - all of which can use Velocity. Note that the
learning curve for all of these is considerably higher than
VelocityViewServlet.
Best,
WILL

which documentation? we should get that changed. i'm pretty sure the
docs for the VelocityViewServlet are right.
The docs (http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/docs/developer-
guide.html#Using%20Velocity%20In%20Servlets under 'deployment') for
VelocityServlet are incorrect, or outdated anyway.
I have tried both param names and neither solve my problem unfortunately.
I will try the VelocityViewServlet but thought this was mainly for
parsing templates directly, the stuff I need to do is much too complex to
fit within a template (ie I need to make http connections to a different
server etc).
I could be misunderstanding though - more reading to do : )
When using 'properties' on its own as a param name I got a warning
message in the logs that this name had been deprecated though.
