If you have a server to run the JSP's on, then you probably also have all the libraries you need, you might want to nose around in your server documentation. If you don't have a server to run JSP's on, then go ahead and download Tomcat. Tomcat has been named the "Official Servlet/JSP reference implementation" by Sun. There are two versions of Tomcat. They are different. Get 4.0.1. Sun provides a download, or you can go to the official site. http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html or: http://jakarata.apache.org/tomcat So instead of a "Servlet Development Kit" you download Tomcat. Tomcat includes everything you need to compile and run Servlets and JSP's. There used to be a "Servlet SDK", but it's old and you shouldn't use it. Use Tomcat or some other modern servlet container. You do not need to download the whole J2EE reference implementation. -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
