G'Day from Brisbane,
although not a newbie as such, I have been out of the
Java world for eight years or so. Given a new year I thought I'd get back in touch with a few new environments. So NetBeans 6.5, GlassFish V2 and Java SDK of course. And I picked out some beginners tutorials. Got through the first one. It had errors, but they were easy to pick and correct. I am stumped on this error on the second tutorial, as I AM a newbie at this technology!

That is the tutorial
NetBeans
IDE Tutorial for Web Applications
Welcome to the NetBeans IDE 6.5 tutorial for web applications.
I foolowed the tutorial step by step and got errors. Figuring I had a case of dyslexic fingers, I did the toot again using cut-n-paste from the example code.
Same errors. Now, I googled the error. 10 items found. No answers. Bugger....
Unable to load tag handler class "com.midnightcookies.taghandlers.LinksHandler" for tag "midnight:links"
<td
>
<midnight:links separator="<br>"/>
</td>
This is the offending block in main.jsp
This stuff is at the top of main.jsp, added automagically by NetBeans IDE (I am missing vi() already! ;-)
<%@page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"%>
<%@page buffer="none"%>
<%-- The <midnight:content/> tag which handles the contents section
is simplistically implemented to use an include. Hence this page
cannot be buffered --%>
<%@taglib prefix="midnight" uri="http://www.midnightcookies.com/midnight"%>
I'd love to debug it myself, but don't really know where to start.
Any hints would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Mark.
Sorry about that. I didn't disable HTML....
