Hi Ravi,
Yes, we need to first compile the file through javac. Say you are trying to
build a HelloWorld servlet, these are the things you need to do :
1. Make sure that the JSDK files are in the CLASSPATH
2. Save the file as HelloWorld.java and compile it
3. If you are using the servlet container provided with JSDK, move the class
file to :
<JSDK Install Directory>WebPages/WEB-INF/servlets
4. Run the startserver.bat file to get the ServletRunner going
5. Type http://localhost:8080/servlet/HelloWorld into your browser's address
box, now you should be able to see your browser call the HelloWorld servlet
Note : If you have problems accessing via localhost, try using 127.0.0.1.
the javax.Servlet errors should also be cleared by now. Check it out.
