Hi,

This is usually a problem with IE, it caches your pages for you. This might
be the reason.
Try doing the same in some other browser. (Firefox usually doesnt cache the
pages.....)

If u still have the problem in other browsers, you might have to enable
autoreload in tomcat to recomplie jsps or reload classes whenever
there is a change to the file.

Hope this helps.

Rizwan.
