Problem in retrieving init-param

Question

Hi,
I am having some problem while trying to access the initial parameters throught a jsp page.
Instead of getting the avalues, i am getting null values.
Here is the web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app  PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application
2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
     <display-name>First Project</display-name>
     <description>A Virtual Shopping Mall</description>
     <!-- Input for ConfigDemoServlet.java -->
     <servlet>
          <servlet-name>ConfigDemoServlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>ConfigDemoServlet</servlet-class>
          <!--Initial parameters -->
          <init-param>
               <param-name>AdminEmail</param-name>
               <param-value>[email protected]</param-value>
          </init-param>
          <init-param>
               <param-name>ContactNo</param-name>
               <param-value>9886424818</param-value>
          </init-param>
     </servlet>
     <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>ConfigDemoServlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>/servlet/ConfigDemoServlet</url-pattern>
     </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>And here is my test.jsp
<%
     String AdminEmail = application.getInitParameter("AdminEmail");
     String ContactNo = application.getInitParameter("ContactNo");
     System.out.println("++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++");
     System.out.println(AdminEmail); //Output is null
     System.out.println(ContactNo);  //Output is null
%>Thanks for your help.

Haii
The initParam that u have given has the scope inside the servlet ConfigDemoServlet. So u cant get the initparameter value for the jsp
if u rite config.getInitParameter("") inside ConfigDemoServlet u willl get teh value..
