Wrong! What happens, is that UserData belongs to no package. So the compiler tries to find it in the package for the generated servlet (which is org.apache.jsp for tomcat and may be any name with other jsp engines).
To use a bean that belongs to no package (not a good practice anyway) you have to import it like <%@ page import="UserData" %> (Not shure if that really works, because I never used a bean without a package.) > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: dderry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 22.
