hey,
i am new to the whole servlets & jsp story and i'm playing around a little with security constraints ...
i chose FORM as the auth type, created users in the tomcat-users.xml file, but when i try to log on, it will always forward me to the error page.
here is my code
login.html
web.xml
tomcat-users.xml
does anybody know what the problem is ??
also, how would i retrieve the role and user information from a database, rather than using and xml file?
thank you

... you might find the "Defining a JDBCRealm" section of this article useful:

thank you :-)
i have solved the tomcat-users.xml problem.
i was editing the xml file under tomcat/conf. eclipse however has it's own copy somewhere deep in the dir structure.
