Hi jayarani,
If u r working under a server then u should specify the correct url path to access the file.for eg.
http://localhost:8080/jsp/Test/test.xml For parsing a remote xml file many methods are there.One of the flexible methods is using <xtags> provided by apache.
It is easiest one to implement all your applications.The concept of xtags is same like xsl,but the difference is in xtags you can embed your xpath and xslt transformations in jsp as well as u can parse an XML,which resides in any server.To my knowledge Parsing is not possible in xsl.
To know more about this just visit jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/xtags-doc/intro.html.
From there download xtags library..In that zip file u could find
xtags-examples.war file.Again if u extract this war file then u will find all necessary examples for your application.
In your case the code would be.
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
<html>
<%@ taglib uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/xtags-1.0" prefix="xtags" %>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>
Test application</title>
</head>
<body>
<xtags
arse url="http://localhost:8080/jsp/Test/test.xml"/>
your further implementaions here

if u have any doubt or difficulty then feel free to ask me again..
all the best,
kind regards,
paramaguru
