I am starting to learn JSP and this is a simple file that I got from a tutorial ..however when I run it i get the following error
when I click submit on the HTML page, it says ....its not able to find the class. ....UserData cannot be resolved to a type
Can some one tell me where to put the class file so that the jsp page can find it
The UserData.class is in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\ directory
My .html and .jsp pages are in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\ROOT\ directory.
<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="SaveName.jsp">
What's your name? <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=username SIZE=20><BR>
What's your e-mail address? <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=email SIZE=20><BR>
What's your age? <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=age SIZE=4>
<P><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
this is the code in SaveName.jsp
<jsp:useBean id="user" scope="session" class="UserData" />
<jsp:setProperty name="user" property="*"/>
<HTML>
<BODY>
<A HREF="NextPage.jsp">Continue</A>
</BODY>
</HTML>
the code in UserData is as follows
class UserData
{
String username;
String email;
int age;
public void setUsername(String value)
{
username = value;
}
public void setEmail(String value)
{
email = value;
}
public void setAge(int value)
{
age = value;
}
public String getUsername()
{
return username;
}
public String getEmail()
{
return email;
}
public int getAge()
{
return age;
}
}
This is the code in NextPage.jsp
<jsp:useBean id="user" class="UserData" scope="session"/>
<HTML>
<BODY>
You entered<BR>
Name: <%= user.getUsername() %><BR>
Email: <%= user.getEmail() %><BR>
Age: <%= user.getAge() %><BR>
</BODY>
</HTML>
