What server will you be using as your servlet container? Tomcat? Resin? other?

The servlet (and JSP) jar files will be provided when you download and set up the server.

Once you have the jar files on your system, you simply need to let your IDE know where they are. Consult the IDE help or documentation to find out how to add jars to the project.

i have installed tomcat 5.5 server
inside server folder i can see jar files but for servlet which jar we use
please just some ideas
this is the first time i am interacting through this forum

$TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib/servlet-api.jar

I'll move this to the IDEs forum where users of Eclipse can help you add the jar files to your project.

its easy dude... just right click on your project folder in IDE (say in eclipse).. click properties...you will get a window... in that java build path...in libraries.. you will have add external jars... choose that and browse through... you will get lib folder within tomcat folder found inside program files... inside lib is a jar file called servlet-api.jar.. add it..

good luck..
if you have doubt.. come back and ask..
