I'm trying to load a java properties file and then read from that file.
But each time I try this it returns the value of Null.

Any Ideas?

....

There are a number of ways to do this, but the following works for me on
OC4J stand-alone:

URL
myURL=application.getResource("/WEB-INF/Administration.properties");

Gives me an error of:
Syntax error, insert "AssignmentOperator Expression" to complete
Expression
this is for teh variable URL.

URL is a class, myURL is a variable.

You may have missed the '='. If not, please be more clear.

I've got it to work in a java core file but cant figure out how to do
this in jsp.

That is always a good strategy, to do it in 'core Java'
(where possible) before putting it into something like
an applet or web-service, where it is more hassle to
deploy, and harder to debug.
