hey, i want to start writing servlets. i already have the jdk1.3, but do i need to get the jsdk to create servlets? and also if i do, is it a free download from java.sun.com?
 
nih,

Yes, you will need the jsdk2.1 or a full Enterprise IDE software like JBuilder, Visual Age, etc. to develop Servlets.

jsdk2.1 can be downloaded free from Sun. I did have some problems running it with jdk1.3 on a Windows 2000 machine, but No problems with jdk1.2.

The startserver command file does not work on Windows 98 unless you modify it.

When I read the jsdk2.1 install instructions from SUN, I had know problems getting it running on a Windows NT system.

Good luck,
Brian
