Hi all, 
I am tring to include external classes that are needed for my servlet 
class.   I tried to modify classpath in setclasspath.bat file by 
set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%
\lib\tools.jar;c:\mindbridge\classes\saclasses.jar
I needed all the classes in the saclasses.jar file for my servlet. When 
i restart the tomcat server, it just shows a blank page with out 
showing the default page. Is this the right way of including classes?
