I looked up your book online using Google Books. I can see on page 31 where your project starts, but it skips the rest of the pages to page 34. I'm guessing this line is your problem: <FORM ACTION=servlet/ResponseDemoServlet METHOD="POST"> Tomcat 4 had something called the invoker servlet turned on by default, which meant requests were passed through the mapping of: servlet/someservletname. Tomcat 6 doesn't have that on by default anymore, and you should leave it that way. All you need to do is update the url-mapping for your form's action to the correct url pattern, based on how you deployed your "myapp" and how you referenced this servlet in your web.xml. You are likely going to be confused throughout this book if all the examples are based on Tomcat 4. I don't know anyone still putting HTML code in out.println statements. Can you afford to get a newer book on JSP/Servlets? There are also semi-decent websites that have some newer content.
