Servlet.jar problem

Question

Hi all
Could anyone help me out this problem, I keep trying to figure it out these days but I still cant find my way.
I cannot compile a simple HelloWorldServlet.java, as it gave me 6 errors:
===========================================
package javax.servlet does not exist
import javax.servlet/*;
^
package javax.servlet.http does not exist
import javax.servlet.http/*;
^
the other 4 errors also pointing to the HttpServlet, HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse and ServletException
===========================================
I have installed Tomcat 4.1.24 and j2sdk1.4.1_01 on my computer. I know the compiler javac needs the servlet.jar when compiling servlet source code, so I have set the path like this
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\J2SDK1.4.1_01\BIN;C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\common\lib\servlet.jar
However, same errors are still generated after I set the path. So can anyone can tell me what thing goes wrong with my setting? or this is not the servlet.jar and path problem?
With uncountable thank : )

Hi,
My questions are the same.
But I have also set up the classpath for the servlet component.
After that, I found I can't call user-defined obecjts in my servlet.
Even when I just write a simple Java command-line progarm which call the outside objects, it also can't find the user-defined objects; unless I move out the setup of CLASSPATH. So does anyone have the further solution? or tell me where I can find the answer!
Thank you so much!
