Subject: Re: tags help
This sounds like a good application for the struts framework.
It is easy to install, and there are over 1000 helpful people currently on
the
user-list.
Download the example and take a look.
The Ant software is used for building/compiling jars/wars, etc. You
shouldn't
need it to run your app.
What does your web.xml file look like (the taglib portion). ?
