thanx........but it will be very useful; for me if u will describe step-2 in detail.......wat mean by.........updating CLASSPATH...........

[JavaLang]

Setting the classpath

control panel -------> System ---------->Advanced ------>Environment Variables -------->user variables ------>

here you will find a CLASSPATH varaible,update it with the path of your
servlet-api.jar.

servlet-api.jar is used by the java compiler to compile the servlet files so u need to include them in your classpath.


NOTE :

This is only necessary when you are manually comipling the servlet classes using command prompt.

You can very well use IDE's like NETBEANS or ECLIPSE.

if you use these IDE's for developing your web application it will be very easy.and there is no need to set the classpath.and also you will get the default directory stucture for web application.
