Tomcat is being unfairly maligned! In any Servlet/JSP container, it suffices to place JSPs in the root directory of the default application, and Servlets in the classes directory under that. At least for simple cases. A good course should start off showing how to use servlets and JSPs in the default Context, and maybe end up showing how to configure a server or two (the Learning Tree course I teach on this subject shows a little bit of configuration on both TC and JRun, to give the students an idea of the range of possibilities and differences, but the emphasis is on the API. BTW, "the file layout of the sample web applications" is - apart from the name of the directory - clearly specified by the J2EE/ Servlet specification, and is NOT something that you should try to blame :-) on Tomcat. What is good about TC is that it does ship with several sample applications, each of which follows the specification, so you can examine these and learn about setting up your own. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
