the problem u r facing is that of classpath setting ...the code in your sevlet program is not able to find the servlet package...
what u can do is to go to DOS command prompt and set the classpath as : set classpath=c:\TOMCAT_HOME\lib\servlet.jar where TOMCAT_HOME is the directory where you have installed tomcat. hope this helps...in case it doesn't do write back good luck :) vivek.... --- Leon Vermaak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My path is fine, but in the instalation instructions > for windows me it said not to specify any path that > automatically it would look for the class?
