further information: the error is "unable to compile class for jsp."
this is the directory:jsp-examples/jsp2/tags/tagfiles/ch01.jsp
all tags are under web-info. in this chapter, you have four tags/classes. other three have no error, only one (booktitle.tag/class) is creating the error. and they are all under same directory. strange, isn't it?

answer, please.
