Yup! That worked. Part of the problem for me is that the book I'm using to
learn Java was written just before the Java web server was released to
Jakarta.
Innyway, you've saved me from lots of work until I need to. I'm I've been
reading the documentation on deploying an application. For a newbie, it's a
bit overwhelming right now just to test a simple example.
Cheer mate!

Subject: Re: newbie: Installing Servlets
Hi,
if you have a servlet named "HelloWorld"i believe you
have to put your classes on
"webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/" and access it with
URL
"http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/HelloWorld";
Let me know if it works. ;)
