AFAIK, you can't import a jar file in a JSP.  The jar file must exist either
on the servlet engine's classpath or specified somewhere in the servlet
engine's configuration to be in its classpath.  Import statements are for
name-resolution only.  The following code snippets  llustrate two ways of
accessing a class that resides in a jar that happens to be (actually, MUST
be) on the classpath :
----------------------------------------
x = new foo.bar.util.Widget();
----------------------------------------
import foo.bar.util.*;   // note you could say "import foo.bar.util.Widget"
...
x=new Widget();
----------------------------------------

Hope this helps,
