Resource not available

I was trying the example given in head first servlets & jsp book in the ch 3(mini mvc tutorial).
the form .html is working fine but when i click the submit button the following error is returned...

type Status report

message /beerv1/%E2%80%9DSelectBeer.do%E2%80%9D

description The requested resource (/beerv1/%E2%80%9DSelectBeer.do%E2%80%9D) is not available.
files are as follows..
form.html

web.xml

BeerSelect.java

I have the following directory structure under webapps/beerv1
form.html
WEB-INF
|_ web.xml
classes
|_ com
|_ example
|_web
|_ BeerSelect.class

you mean the class file is in web folder which under com/example ?

try this : <form method=”POST” action=”${pageContext.request.contextPath}SelectBeer.do”>

yes, that is how it was supposed to be...
i tried the way you said but the problem still exists

sorry!in my previous post, action=”${pageContext.request.contextPath}SelectBeer.do”> it is missing "/" before the SelectBeer.do

still not working....

I'm suspicious of the quotes in the HTML page--what did you use to create the file?

My suspicions are even *more* aroused by the nature of the error message--see all those special, URL-encoded characters? See in your post how the quotes in the JSP code are different than in the Java code?

Boo ya!

Excellent catch man..

i created that file in notepad...
i don't know why that was a problem (different quotes in different editors.)
it works now...after i changed quotes in textpad.

Chalk up another victory over those accursed MS "smart" punctuation characters.
