Hi, I too got the same problem when I first compiled servlets but I have
downloaded ServletAPI from sun and included servlet.jar in my class path rather than using servlet.jar in TOMCAT.Maybe there's something wrong in ur classpath.I suggest u to check twice the class path. Are u getting the same errors as this: Errors: AddCourses.java:10: cannot resolve symbol symbol : class HttpServletRequest location: class AddCourses protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse res) thr ows ServletException,IOException ^ AddCourses.java:10: cannot resolve symbol symbol : class HttpServletResponse location: class AddCourses protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req,HttpServletResponse res) thr ows ServletException,IOException ................ ................ As I got the same. My path file looks like this. set classpath=C:\jdk1.3\bin\servletapi2_1_1-win\servlet.jar;C:\jdk1.3\lib\tools.ja r;%path%; Srinivas ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
