hi,

i wanna know how to execute a servlet program???
plse anyone help me????
wtng fo reply???

Servlet is like any other Java class and should be compiled like any other java class. Once compiled, place the class file into the WEB-INF/classes directory, add the servlet and servlet mapping entry into the web.xml, start the Tomcat and through the browser call the server using the URL-pattern specified in the web.xml.

Compiling servlet source file you need the servlet-api.jar to be included in the classpath.
So if you use IDE tool it will help you do it, like Eclipse.
if you code, compile and deploy just by hand, you must set classpath by hand too.

first you need the lib,then you can use javac to compile
