It sounds like your original error might be in the included page, and that error message is being swallowed by the including page.

If checking a variable, are you using code like getSession().getAttribute( "name" )? If so, you might be getting an NPE ... you'd need to call getSession( true ).

Also, your useBean directives. Do you want to use class or type here? Maybe you're getting an instantiation exception on one of your beans?

Just wild guesses!

Download tomcat from http://jakarta.apache.org. Once expanded, you can find the servlet-api.jar in the /common/lib directory.

BTW - this file should be available with any J2EE Servlet container; why would you want it otherwise?

A JSP is a servlet.

I disagree about using tomcat and apache. Searching the tomcat mailing archives, many developers feel that the mod_jk/jk2 connectors add more complexity and overhead than is necessary. They recommend using the HTTPConnector rather than Apache if you're using a recent version of Tomcat.

Also, I've found that JK is less than stable on high traffic apache/tomcat installations when tomcat and apache reside on different physical machines.

Search for and try using the "Display" tags. There an open source tag library that handles lists very elegantly. I believe that this will have the code you're looking for.

Prefix your servlet class with the full package name, i.e., com.somepackage.MarksServlet
