packages, directories, and confusion

Howdy.

I'm using JSP files and beans. I'm currently trying to test out an application I made a long time ago on a pre-existing website.

I DON'T want my test application to clutter or interfere with the current website's operation.

So I put it's JSP files in a higher directory from my root.

The normal site's JSP files are here: ROOT

My test JSP files are here: ROOT/TEST

However, this is causing major headaches. My application server now thinks that any beans I call from "ROOT/TEST" should be in the package "TEST". So if I call a bean using this line of code:

<jsp:useBean id="order" scope="session" class="OrderForm" />

The application server thinks I want to use the bean "TEST.OrderForm", simply because my JSPs reside in the "ROOT/TEST" directory.

Is there any way to get around this? Can I make my JSPs look for my beans in my standard WEB-INF directory without adding this TEST package? Or am I simply going to have to manually go into EVERY SINGLE class file I have and manually change the package????

Thanks...

u can include the classpath (path where the beans exists) in ur webserver...this will solve ur problem...

That would work for my localhost server, but not for my production server. My production server is in a shared environment. Unfortunately I don't have access to such things.

thats was the best solution...never mind...c if there is ne option in jsp to give classpath along with the bean....

best wishes...

Thanks! I'll do that.
