Steve Kirk mentioned this in his list of files you need to have in your
classpath, but I'll repeat it as a direct answer to your question. The
file servlet-api.jar provides the implementation of the
javax.servlet.http package.
If you put that in your classpath, it should get rid of the compile
error you listed below.

Thanks. Now I am stuck at:
test_jsp.java:55: cannot find symbol
symbol : method getAttribute(java.lang.String)
location: interface javax.servlet.http.HttpSession
USER_ID = session.getAttribute("USER_ID").toString();
^
What jar file is javax.servlet.http in? I am already including servlet.jar.

You have to add jsp-api.jar to the classpath.

I am having a problem where one of my jsp files won't compile. Tomcat
successfully creates the java file but it never creates the class file
and hence never responds to the request for the page.
I am looking for what needs to be in the command line in order to
manually compile the java file the gets created in order to look for
errors in that process.
This is what I have so far but I am getting errors.
c:\jdk1.5.0\bin\javac -classpath
%CLASSPATH%;C:\tomcat\work\Catalina\Site1\_;C:\tomcat\common\lib\servl

.jar test_jsp.java
Errors:
test_jsp.java:5: package javax.servlet.jsp does not exist import
javax.servlet.jsp.*; ^
test_jsp.java:8: package org.apache.jasper.runtime does not exist
public final class test_jsp extends

test_jsp.java:9: package org.apache.jasper.runtime does not exist
