Tomcat does something similar: - As one poster already mentioned, keep all of your jar files in WEB-INF/lib. - make sure the JSPs are mapped to servlet paths in WEB-INF/web.xml. (I'm out on a limb here, but it sounds as if Jrun automagically loads your JSP jar file and creates the mappings for you.) If the latter sounds like a pain in the rear, there are Ant tasks to do the precompilation for you and generate the web.xml snippet. : If I create a .war file for the production server then the .war file : contains no compiled .jsps, just the original .jsp files - is that right? Not true. The war file contains whatever you put in it. JSPs, images, jars, whatever. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
