   	C.	Just after the Document Type Declaration.
   	D.	Inside of <context-param> elements when you want to declare a context initialization parameter.

   Note

   -Option B is incorrect because web.xml does not contain an element named <web-application>.

   -Option D is incorrect because <context-param> elements do not contain <init-param>.
