where to put beans in tomcat 4.1

i'm a newbie in jsp and am just learning through online tutorials.
my prob is that whenever my jsp uses a bean, it can't detect the class. my tutorial instructs me to put my JSPs in /webapps/ROOT. i tried to put the beans by adding another folder (/WEB-INF/classes) in the said directory. but i still can't get it to run.
need help! tnx

Hi
Try to package your beans and put them in appropriate sub folder inside WEB-INF\classes. In usebean tag use the calss with package name.

Hi
Can u tell us what exception? And a portion of code would be better.
