Where do 'parameters' come from?

[Milind W-2]

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how all the different files connect.
I saw this line.
<decorator-screen name="CommonContactListDecorator"
location="${parameters.mainDecoratorLocation}">

Where do 'parameters' come from?
Could not find the answer using google or markmail.
Would appreciate if someone can tell.
Thanks

Here you go  http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/PQM

And at large http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Documentation+Index. Also there is a search box at right top : very useful
At large use http://ofbiz.markmail.org/search/

In one word : this is part of the framework which provides a Java Map called parameters. parameters contains the context you are
working with. In your case mainDecoratorLocation is put in parameters by the framework from the component web.xml file. Simply
search for mainDecoratorLocation in the project to know more...

Understanding Tomcat would help also.
look in the web.xml
