In fact, what I want to know is where do I have to put the DBConnection.class or do you have to change the classpath? Please help me.

I have created a JSP and a class DBConnection. I want to create an instance of that class in my JSP like this: <% DBConnection dbc = new DBConnection(); %> I use an Apache-Tomcat server and I have put the JSP and the DBConnection.class in the same directory ($TOMCAT\webapps\ROOT\) The problem is that when I test the JSP it can't find the class DBConnection. I have the following error: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP An error occurred between lines: 150 and 158 in the jsp file: /SubscriptionHousehold.jsp Generated servlet error: C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.2\work\localhost\_\SubscriptionHousehold$jsp.java:63: Class org.apache.jsp.DBConnection not found. DBConnection dbc = new DBConnection(); Can someone tell me what I have to do to be able to create an instance of DBConnection in my JSP? Is it possible? I hope it is.
