>What is a .jar and how does it relate to a .java or a servlet file? A .jar it's kinda like a .zip (WinZip can open it) and it contains the .class files, packaged and ordered by directories. AFAIK, it's just an easier way of deploying a lot of classes...
A .java file, compiled, becomes a .class, and that .class can go into a JAR. Please someone else correct me if I'm wrong (probably I am!). :-) Joaquin
