Joseph,
Having fought this battle (i.e. trying to learn with only minimal setup
info included in JSWDK), I sympathize.
I haven't tried this, so be wary of this. But it should work:
First:
In webserver.xml, define your webapplication pretty much following the
"example" web application. Then copy the HelloWorldExample from the
examples\Web-inf\servlets to C:\jswdk-1.0.1\mywebappl\web-inf\servlets.
Then try out:
http://localhost:8080/mywebappl/servlet/HelloWorldExample (assuming you
use port 8080).
If that works, at least your basic setup for your web application is OK.
Then:
If you have invoked your JSP as http://localhost:8080/mywebappl/some.jsp
then the action probably should be "../servlet/myservlet". Or, you
could say, "/mywebappl/servlet/myservlet". If you used the "relative"
form with the "../" then you could presumably move this servlet/jsp to
other web applications without having to change the action. This is
probably confusing, since "mywebappl" and "servlet" have nothing to do
with "real" paths in your filesystem, but these are "virtual" paths used
by the server (in conjunction with the webserver.xml file) to determine
where the "real" files are. However, the "../" works in the browser
since it has no clue whether the paths on the server are real or virtual
and it simply replaces the "../" with "/mywebappl".
Hope this helps (and works ;-).
