hi
below is my servlet program:
...............................

import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class HelloWorld extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("Hello World");
}
}

..................................................

I saved it in d:\java program\Helloworld.java.
................................................

at command prompt i typed:::::
D:\java program>javac Helloworld.java
......................................

error i got ::::
Helloworld.java:4: class Helloworld is public, should be declared in a file named Helloworld.java

.................................................. ...................
plse help me out??????

The class is declared as HelloWorld with 'W' in uppercase. YOu have saved the file with 'w' in lower case. Hence the problem. Save the file as HelloWorld.java and try compiling. It should work.

Yup, add the servlet and its pattern in the web.xml file of that context.
