I posted this problem to the group the other nite, but alas, since it still
persists as a problem for me, I thought that i would re-submit it for anyone
to try to help me with it. The problem is still getting a  server error
pointing to a "NullPointerException"!!! I really don't see at all any kind
of a null object reference or any problem like that could lead to such an
exception in this file :

                     package org.my.servlets;
                         import java.io.*;
                         import javax.servlet.*;
                         import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class My_Image extends HttpServlet {
   public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
                      throws ServletException, IOException {
      resp.setContentType("image/jpeg");

      ServletContext con = getServletContext();
      InputStream in = con.getResourceAsStream("/MyBeautifulGirl1.jpeg");

      int read = 0;
      byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];

      OutputStream os = resp.getOutputStream() ;
      while(( read = in.read(bytes)) != -1){
    os.write(bytes, 0, read);
      }
      os.flush();
      os.close();
  }
}
