because the class attribute is what is used to instantiate the bean. class="package.myBean" and for that it needs a fully qualified name, otherwise in case you have more than one import statement, it will not know which class you are referring to.

The above declaration doesn't work but the following works <jsp:useBean id="myid" class="package.myBean" /> WHY??? __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
