3rd party libs (e.g. xml parsers etc) should be placed in the WEB-INF/lib
directory. But this is valid jar files, not simple classes. If you have your
own classes, or even other peoples, unpacked and not in a jar form, put them
in WEB-INF/classes (remembering to mirror thier package in the directory
structure under classes).
So if I had a support class call com.mycomp.UserValidator.class, I would put
it in WEB-INF/classes/com/mycomp/. If I had a jar file I use called
validator.jar, it would be in WEB-INF/lib
Hope this helps,
sam
