ConfigParameters.wiki

Introduction

Configuration is done through web.xml. All values can be left blank and a default value will be chosen.

Below is an example of the init-param you would add to your web.xml. If you want to set other variables, then you would add more init-param blocks.

<init-param> <param-name>kaptcha.border</param-name> <param-value>yes</param-value> </init-param> Note: This only works with the KaptchaServlet. SimpleServlet does not pay attention to the web.xml parameters.
