Connection con;
try {
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://myhost.noaa.gov:3306/testdb","testuser","testpass");
} catch (Exception e) {
throw (new ServletException("Error loading Driver: " +e.getMessage()));
}
seems to work fine. Does JSTL look for the Driver classes in a location other than the scriplet-based connection code?
Thanks again!

I am hoping that someone can help me to get going with the SQL tags. I'm trying to connect to a mysql database using tomcat4.1.12 and version 1.0.2 of the library.
Here's my JSP:
<%@ taglib prefix="sql" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/sql"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<sql:setDataSource var="monitorDS"
url="jdbc:mysql://myhost.noaa.gov:3306/testdb"
driver="org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver"
user="testuser"
password="testpass"
/>
</BODY>
</HTML>
I'm getting a:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to get connection, DataSource invalid: "No suitable driver"
This is because the JDBC driver classes are not found by the web container. Make sure you have installed them in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the application. > [...] Hans
