webpages on Tomcat

| Hi,
I am a JSP newbie. I installed apache tomcat on my PC. I can view all
the example JSP pages at http://localhost:8080/jsp-examples/. The files
themselves reside at C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.0\webapps\jsp-examples.
So I created a html and a JSP page in C:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Tomcat 5.0\webapps\. but i can't seem to view them via http.
Am I missing something really fundamental here?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Eddy

1. what is the url being typed in your browser
2. avoid putting your html and jsp directly inside webapps folder, it
does not work as far as I know.
3. make a folder (say, call it something). Put your jsp and html inside
webapps\something.
4. in browser, it is localhost:8080/something/jspName.jsp

Yes I did make a subfolder, and put a file called index.html in this
directory:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.0\webapps\test_jsp
Then I went to this URL to access it:
http://localhost:8080/test_jsp/index.html
The error message from the browser said "The requested resource
(/test_jsp/index.html) is not available."
I am really  and frustrated...

If you add files to /jsp-examples, does that work?

| Tom,
yes it works if i add files to the /jsp-examples folder.
but why doesn't it recognize the subfolder i created under \webapps?
does this mean that i need to tell the server that i created that
subfolder?
