Hi Tim,

1) using SQL tags in a JSP is a bad design choice, I recommend against it.
SQL belongs in the model layer, not the presentation layer.
2) I am not familiar with how NetBeans does things nor have I tried Derby
but to me this sounds like a typical Tomcat class loader problem. The SQL
tags (or whatever is looking for the Derby driver) are outside your
application (loaded by Tomcat's common class loader) so they cannot see the
Derby classes loaded inside your application. Try locating the Tomcat
installation that NetBeans is starting and add the Derby driver jar to the
lib folder in there, that will most likely fix it.

Good Luck,
Stani
