RE: JSPs and Property Files

hi Nigel -

Hmmm...no good answer to that...I'm actually not smart enough to write
this code, I'm relaying a question from the front-end guy (I'm the
back-end guy...hmmm...that sounds odd....anyway...).

The properties file contains a list of keywords with which the user can
search.
