Paul Caton, The error message your getting is because of the fact that "response.setContentType()" doesn't return anything. You used "<%= %>" in your jsp, which needs an Object or a primitive inbewteen those brackets. Your jsp is then going to call toString() on that Object (or just blithely print the primitive) and make that part of your webpage.
Since "response.setContentType()" doesn't return anything, there is no Object to call toString() on, or no primitive to blithely print! Try "<% %>" instead. Omit the equals sign. Don't forget to put a semicolon at the end. yours, Julius Davies, Programmer, CUCBC Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], Ph: 604.730.6385 Code inside "<%= %>" should never end with a semicolon. Code inside "<% %>" needs semicolons at the end of each line. > -----Original Message----- > From: Caton, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 10:49 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: RE: Not getting CSS with XML > > > Okay, I put the Java expression first so that now the JSP file looks > like this: > > <%= response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8") %><%@ include > file="mary.xml" %> > > > After I recompiled and tried to access the page I got this error > message: > > > org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for > JSPNote: sun.tools.javac.Main has been deprecated. > > An error occurred at line: 1 in the jsp file: /mary.jsp > > > Generated servlet error: > > > /opt/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.6-LE-jdk14/work/Standalone/local > host/acsam > /mary$jsp.java:54: Incompatible type for method.
