You should probably just use Freemarker instead of making your own. It will work no problem by placing the template files in with your source code and references them by the directory structure off the root of your classpath.

I couldn't literally do what I wanted, that seems all but impossible in a cross-container way (a compiled JSP servlet won't work because its specific to the container that compiled it, and writing to the file system won't work if run from an EAR without knowing about the environment more than I want), so instead I essentially created my own template system... Since I really just needed some straightforward token replacements, it wasn't an especially big deal. I may investigate Freemarker or something similar, but I "solved" it by going around it in the end :) Frank -- Frank W.
