okey dokey,
here we go
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/interpack/packages.html
example: (look at the package statement)
//--source of java file-----------
package com.filip.test;
public class Data implements java.io.Serializable
{
private String data;
public Data(String data) { this.data = data;}
public String toString() { return data; }
}
//--end of java file--------------
This file now exists in a "package" called com.filip.test;
when you compile this file you can do this:
"javac -d . Data.java"
this will compile the file Data.java into Data.class and place this file in a folder
in the following way
./com/filip/test/Data.class
This file, should now be placed under /yourwebapp/WEB-INF/classes/com/filip/test/
Using JBuilder, when you say "New Class" it asks you to specify a package.
When referencing this class from other classes you can use the "import" statement.
This is the short version, so let me know if you have any direct questions.
Packages are not specific to Tomcat, it is a part of the Java language.

Hi Filip, I just now read yer little email msg. to me, and I understand that there
should be little or even nothing that I need to do "special" to get the jsp/servlet to
work in JBuilder!! However, I have no experience at all in "packaging up" a .java
file! Would u please "humor me" and explain the process to me?! I have been told that
I need to create something like "org.burrus.[name of file]" or something similiar. I
know that you possess a "massive" amount of knowledge about Tomcat, so please give a
"newbie" like me just a little piece of that knowledge. :) I thank you very much.
