This allows you (among other things) to : - setRequestAttribute("flightsServletBean", flightsServletBean, request); - callPage(getPageNameFromRequest(request), request, response) Use Bean Tags in JSP <....> >The Beans(HelloBean.java), >Servlets(WASHelloServlet.java) & the >JSP(WASHelloJSP.jsp) have to be in the same directory, >which will involve crouding the directory(in this case >: WebSphere/Appserver/samples) I don't know which web-server you're using, but if you're using the IBM HTTP Server (or Apache), have a look in the httpd.conf file where you can define an **alias** (fe Alias /IBMWebAS/samples/ "C:/WebSphere/AppServer/samples/" Alias /MyAlias/ "Mypath/") and manage this way your directory. >Could you please treat this query as urgent & reply to >the same. >Mythili Hope this might help you, Kind regards, Peter =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
