Hi, >Do filters get loaded before servlets regardless of load-on-startup value?
I don't think so: as filters can be mapped to servlet-name, servlets must be loaded first. (Although I suppose you could read web.xml, so you have the servlet info, then instantiance filters, then instantiate servlets, but tomcat doesn't do this). I wouldn't rely on this order unless you had to, however, as it's not mandated either way by the Servlet Specification.
