if you have installed tomcat in /usr/tomcat, the work directory is: /usr/tomcat/work;
with your example: /usr/tomcat/Standalone/localhost/Website
the touch cmd is a unix cmd; example: touch mytest.jsp;
touch change the date/time of the file mytest.jsp to the current date/time; under Windows, you can open and save the file, without modify;
so, "touching" you jsp file where you include, tomcat can detect that the page mytest.jsp is changed, so recompile it;
Best regards.

thanks.
do i delete the name of the app under tomcat, for example work/Standalone/localhost/Website ? and all the $... files and the two directories - Help and WEB-INF under this directory ?
what is the touch cmd ? i cant find it in my wrox tomcat book ?
cheers

You would delete only the directory relative of your site, under the work directory of tomcat;
for example, if you site is called www.test.org, you must delete the directory under tomcat work/www.test.org_8080;
probably the name may be different from release;
after delete it, you must restart tomcat;
But have you tried to use the touch cmd on all .jsp file that include your include.jsp? I use this mode, and all is OK, and I doesn't delete the work directory;
