servletcontext & servletconfig initilization parameter

[gurneeraj singh]

It is written on pg:857 question number 60 of HFSJ, that

"only context params can be directly accessed from JSP's"

But according to me we can access

servletContext parameters using

application.getInitParameter("something");

and

servletConfig parameters using

config.getInitParameter("something");

So, they both are directly accessible from a jsp.

please correct if i am wrong.

Thanks in advance

I agree to what your saying. If i think from EL angle [which is not mentioned in the question] then servlet context params can be accessed directly using ${initParam.paramName} which servlet config params cannot be accessed from EL in JSPs.

Lets see what others have to say.

They may have forgotten scriptlets. What is the exact question/answers ?
