This is specific to Tomcat, so won't work if you move containers. But if you can edit the startup, then you can define them as System properties (e.g. -Dmyapp.ClientName=client), and in your web.xml have something like: <context-param> <param-name>ClientName</param-name> <param-value>${myapp.ClientName}</param-value> </context-param> Any TC 5.5 or higher will do variable substitution when parsing the web.xml file. > Thanks in advance, > > Paul > -- > Psssst!
