javac cannot find javax.servlet.*; package

getting an error when I try to compile code that contains the line:import javax.servlet.jsp.*;import javax .servlet.*;Yet, other classes in javax can be seen by the compiler such as javax.swing.*;

yes, another case of missing a jarfile on the classpath.

In this case the jarfile containing the required classes for the servlet API.

And a clear indication that the person stumbling like that shouldn't try writing servlets yet, as he clearly lacks knowledge about what's even in the standard API and what isn't.
