where would I put a properties file?

["Montgomery, Kendal L" <ke...@qwest.com>]

Hello all..

I have an application that calls a javabean from a JSP.  The bean gets data
from a properties file and returns it to the JSP client.  Trouble being that
I don't know exactly where to place the properties file or make it so that
the bean can find the properties file.  I have tried placing it in the
WEB-INF directory, but no luck there... 

Thanks for any help!

I think that WEB-INF is the right place.  I put my .properties files in
WEB-INF/config/ and refer to that path thusly: ../webapps/of/WEB-INF/config
where "of" is the name of my context.  What problems are you having?
