Perhaps if you posted your specific problem minus the rants and nasty
remarks, people on the list would be a little more inclined to assist you.

Now I don't recall your exact situation because to be honest I have simply
deleted most of the emails you send because the have not made much sense,
and your tone for the most part annoyed me.  So this is probably a little
outdated.  You also may want verification on what I'm about to write because
I am a newbie too (and when seek it, let me suggest you be more polite in
asking).

The only post of yours that I actually didn't delete contained the following
information:

You stated that you have your servlet in a package "org.burrus".    So this
means the path for the GreetingServlet.class should be
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.16\webapps\greeting\WEB-INF\classes\org\burrus\
(notice the WEB-INF is all upper case) And in your GreetingServlet.java you
have "package org.burrus;" (without the quote marks of course) at the
beginning of the file.

In that email, you posted your web-xml and it looked like this:

<web-app>
  <servlet>
    <!-- Servlet alias -->
    <servlet-name>greeting</servlet-name>

    <!-- Fully qualified Servlet class -->
    <servlet-class>GreetingServlet</servlet-class>
   </servlet>
  <servlet-mapping>greeting</servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

>From what I understand this is incorrect.  Since you say you are using a
package - once you check what I stated above about the package, your web.xml
should be:

<web-app>
   <servlet>
      <servlet-name>greeting</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>org.burrus.GreetingServlet</servlet-class>
   </servlet>
 
  <servlet-mapping>
       <servlet-name>Startup</servlet-name>
       <url-pattern>/GreetingServlet</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>
</webapp>


Like I said, you probably want verification on this, but I don't know how
you will get it if you don't learn how to ask a question.  

Good luck.

 No, I am very definitely NOT a "newbie" to manners, whoever you are!! "Are
you a newbie to tomcat or a newbie to manners, Steve?" I just simply wanted
for someone to tell me how exactly I go about editing the web.xml file so I
can then see/view a servlet in my browser! If that offends anyone (and I
don't see how it possibly could), then I am sorry!!
