Use Tomcat 5 instead, Tomcat 3 is extremely outdated and doesn't understand current JSP programming systems which is what you should be using (JSTL mainly).

Installation is simple following the instructions from the download site (http://jakarta.apache.org ).

there are instructions on how to set up tomcat 3 once you have this running and are familiar with this I would recommend upgrading like jwenting said

hello

firslty you will need to check if you have a sdk installed, if this is not then go the http://developers.sun.com/.

make sure you have also changed the environment variables of JAVA_HOME to where the sdk is situated on your pc. once this is done, you can install Tomcat for this go to the jakarta website and download 5x, it;s the latest

Startup tomcat; if its has been installed correclty you will see the index.jsp on browser, if you enter http://localhost:8080/index.jsp


to run your own jsps, save them in the webapps subdirectory of wheer tomcat is installled


hope this helps!
