Re: JSP Reload problem (wierd)

Replies:

I tried using Firefox, and got the same result. I also tried using
shift + reload. Also, It looks like Tomcat is already configured to
reload the jsp's. (below is from the server.xml file).

<Context path="" docBase="myWebapp" debug="5"
reloadable="true"  crossContext="true">

How come no new Login_jsp.class is being written to the work directory?
(The jsp file tmestamp is definately showing as changed when I telnet
to the server - I thought Tomcat automatically recompiled the classes
when it detected a changed timestamp).
