Are you using Tomcat? If so, there are entire
books written on the subject. The best thing is to pick
up one of them and they have a detailed explaination
of how to use servlets  from that and JSP's
etc... A good one is: Professional JSPs 2nd
Edition www.amazon.com/.../sr=8\
-2/ref=sr_8
_71_2/002-5232411-8070453 This book covers getting servlets and JSP's
up and
running on Tomcat (the sun  reference implementation of
Servlets and JSP servers). Stephen
