This is not the case. The servlet (which is in fact a JSP of just one hundred lines long) does not maintain a database of learned words on the server side (there would be one row/personal dictionary per web user!). > Then we may choose to create a simple interface that submits new words > to be saved to a text file.

If "customWords.txt" is static (i.e. just updated by hand from time to time), the basic idea is to replace the stock English dictionary by a customized one. The customized English dictionary would be a composite dictionary. To create it, simply edit WEB-INF/classes/en/default using a plain text editor: --- @multilink: English base.cdi allvar.cdi --- Add a line containing "customWords.txt" to this file: --- @multilink: English base.cdi allvar.cdi customWords.txt --- (File customWords.txt must be present in directory WEB-INF/classes/en/) Then, do the same for WEB-INF/classes/en-US/default. The concept and all technical details about creating a composite dictionary are found here: http://www.xmlmind.com/spellchecker/_distrib/dictbuilder/ar01s02.html
