[Abhimanyu Rathore]

Hey Guys.. Hope you could help me out again..
i am kindaa stuck on to this problem from HF-Servlet-JSP..

Its in chap 3 last servlet version.. The stack trace in tomcat is as follows

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:
An error occurred at line: 7 in the jsp file: /result.jsp
The method getAttritbute(String) is undefined for the type HttpServletRequest
4: <h1 align="center">Beer recommendation JSP</h1>
5: <p>
6: <%
7: List l = (List)request.getAttritbute("styles");
8: Iterator i = l.iterator();
9: while(i.hasNext()){
10: out.println("<br> - "+i.next());
Stacktrace:
org.apache.jasper.compiler.DefaultErrorHandler.javacError(DefaultErrorHandler.java:97)

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/7.0.14 logs.

Thanks in Advance..

p.s. - I correctly deployed servlet, web.xml and even restarted tomcat properly to see the effect.. but still doesn't work
- I am a bit confused about, this page directive <%@ page import="java.util.*" %> could you please explain how does it work in JSP
- Let me know if you guys need any more information regarding the same..

Spell check... its getAttribute() not getAttritbute()
