You don't actually lauch (I guess you mean "launch") a
servlet. Every who has a notion about a servlet life
cycle should make sure its correct by reading

http://www.java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/servlets/lifecycle/index.html

I felt like mentioning it because I've seen so many
incorrect ideas about how servlets work and are run
on here its kinda funny.
