Hi,

I'm looking to create Java Servlets on a Windows XP machine. What web server do I need to do this and where can i get it? I looked at apache, but, was confused as to which version to get .

PS.... I have Microsoft IIS on this machine as well..... can the 2 web servers live together happily or will i have big problems?
 
no there is no problem for multiple web server on single machine but u have to select diffrent port for every web server
and for making servlet there is no need to web server but u need servlet container like apache tomcat .
any problem then conatct me

To run JSP and Servlets, you will require a "servlet container". There are many of these, which are basically web servers that are capable of serving dynamic content through JSP and Servlets.

Popular ones are Tomcat and Jetty. I prefer Jetty over Tomcat, but I believe Tomcat has greater market share.

It is poissible to link a standard web server such as IIS or Apache HTTPD to either, just google around for how.
