Hello Arumugam,

There are sites available on the web that show you how to install,
configure and run servlets/JSPs using Tomcat 3.1 on your pc/laptop. I
followed those instructions and was able to execute servlets/JSPs on my
desktop with tomcat 3.1 as my web server/servlet container/engine. I used
JBuilder 3.5 foundation to code and run java servlet code.

Here is the site I went to: www.borland.community.com...go here and do a
search for tomcat or use google.com and search for tomcat.

hope this helps..
