Hi Joao,
I do believe that your html code is OK, but you are right - it should be
named index.shtml (just rename it). And a long time ago I met a problem with
case of <SERVLET> tag. Don't remember it exactly, but I think it was about
lowercase didn't work and uppercase was OK. Try to uppercase it. And I don't
think you need any IDE - just simple text editor to do such changes. And the
problem of that it is a index file - there are two possibilities to resolve
this: configure your web server so it will look also for index.shtml files
as "starting" file (I use IIS 4.0 and it works, I have 4 types of this
files: default.htm default.html, index.htm, index.html) or make an
index.html file that will redirect you immediately (using <META> tag) to
your index.shtml file.
Hope this helps.

Subject: A basic issue
Hi
I have developed many servlets successfully, but I can't seem to do a
simple thing such as to call a servlet from an HTML file. And this is
becoming an embarassing issue due to the fact that this the index file.
Do I have to write a .shtml file? I don't have an IDE that allows me
to do that.
The code goes within this message. I try it with JRun's SimpleServlet.
If any of you may help me, I would be most grateful.
Thanks.
index.html (code)
<html>
<head>
<title>Index</title>
</head>
<body>
<servlet name='SimpleServlet' code='SimpleServlet.class'
codebase='c:/JRun/servlets/'>
</servlet>
</body>
</html>
