i am learning java jsp and servlets, the book i bought , murach's jsp and servlets uses netbeans for all of its projects.
i want to do it by using, ultraedit or editplus , or textpad, but i cant compile the .java classes because it cant find those .java files even it is in the same directory.
i have this structure:

[webapp1] --> [WEB-INF] , [src] , test.html , sample.jsp
[WEB-INF] --> [classes] , web.xml
[classes] --> ( the compiled java .class files)
[src] --> User.java, UserIO.java , AddToEmailListServlet.java

when i want to compile , User.java, UserIO.java and AddToEmailListServlet.java
javac UserIO complains about not finding User.java even though it is in the same directory [src]

then i changed to match the way netbeans uses :
basically i created separate folders to put the individual java files :

[src] --> [business] , [data] , [email]
[business] --> User.java
[data] --> UserIO.java
[email] --> AddToEmailListServlet.java

so now the these java would use packages same as netbeans
Assume all required imports for servlets are there.






so when i try to compile this, User.java compiles but UserIO.java doesnt because it can find symbol User.
So how do other people make java web applications without using netbeans or intelliJ ?

NOTE: this compiles and runs perfectly using netbeans and intelliJ , the problem is using a text editor.

HI, i am currently learning java , jsp's, servlets, hibernate etc.
I did some web programming before with MS Expression studio and Visual web developer,
with javaEE, i am confused, how do i make a website with just jsp,servlets, html ,css ,javascript ,etc?
i mean , lets say i have to make 20 pages with the same header and footer and same menus at the left of the page but with different content in the center
, with MS expression studio or visual web developer i just used master pages and it was instant,
how do i do that using Java ? , do i just copy and paste common code for the other repetitive pages that need to have headers and footers?

JSP
I am currently doing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology with a minor in Mathematics at F.I.U
http://www.cis.fiu.edu/programs/undergrad/it/single.php
i am having a hard time deciding between doing web development mainly with java or .net , or networking

would it be a good choice concentrating in Java EE ? , the web development class in my college uses java+hibernate+(jsp and servlets) and the course that follows web specialization is asp.net. and also getting SCJP , SCWCD
On the other hand , do you think it is a good choice concentrating in Networking if i dont choose to do web development? and also getting certifications such as CCNA, CCNP , CCIE

Which of these fields do you see will have the most prominent jobs in the next decade?
and if none of these fields are good , which ones would you recommend.

thank you

Oracle DB cert is good , but my primary focus is on web development with javaEE
Also, for recent graduates, which certification combined with a college degree would be best to get a job?
Hi , i am still a student in college , will complete my B.S in Information Technology with a minor in math.
i would like to know if i am in the right path, i took 2 semesters of java( with the second including : linkedlist,stack,hash etc) , and will take another java course that deals with jsps and servlets also ASP.NET
, that is my first concentration required for this degree , the second concentration field i picked Unix/system administration, i dont know if i did the right thing here
but some of the other course that i took and will take include : Database management systems, applied networking, web dev. with java, unix admistration(2 courses)
. ASP.NET, technical report writing, and other 2 courses that deal with hardware and software in windows and linux.
my math minor includes the following: calc 1, 2 ,3 , differential equations, discrete math, linear algebra, statistics 1 and 2.
i did not take a "data structures " or " theory of algorithms" which are required for Computer Science

i am not sure if i am in the right track for the SCJP , i hear most people saying that , a SCJP and SCWCD or SCJD looks better with a Computer Science degree.
i am interested in the SCJP because next i would like to get the SCWCD , the java cert that deals with jsp and servlets, i am very interested in web programming with java.

so my question is : is it ok to try to get these certifications with my major? or should i have majored in Computer Science ?
