Thanks Jon, Now it can find "Fruit.class"
but now I get: "org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot create bean of class Fruit" I was trying to copy verbatim from "JSP: Weekend Crash Course", but the book seems hopelessly flawed. Anyone know of a good book that explains Tomcat and JSP for those never exposed to the technology before?
