Still no success.  As Ashish suggested, I updated the MANIFEST.MF file to 
include a class-path entry that included all the POI jar files.  My MF 
file looked like this:

        Manifest-Version: 1.0
        Class-Path: poi-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-contrib-3.6-20091214.jar; 
poi-examples-3.6-20091214.jar; 
        poi-ooxml-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-ooxml-schemas-3.6-20091214.jar; 
poi-scratchpad-3.6-20091214.jar

(I added the spaces and newline to format the e-mail, the actual file 
doesn't have any spaces or newlines).

When I activate my HTML page, it still reports the same error:
        java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
org/apache/poi/xssf/usermodel/XSSFWorkbook

It really shouldn't be this much trouble to use POI should it?
