JSP cannot be resolved to a type

Question

<%@ page import =\"java.util.*\" %>
<%@ page import =\"book.*\" %>


ArrayList movies = (ArrayList) request.getAttribute(\"movieinfo\");

    if(movies!=         


        

Answer 1

Look at your movie class definition . It is packaged inside movie package.

package movie; // full class name will be movie.movie
import java.util.Date;
public class movie { ......
}

You should import the movie class as :

<%@ page import ="movie.movie" %>

Even then writing Java code inside JSP is highly discouraged . Read How to avoid Java Code in JSP-Files?.

For your purpose you can use JSTL's <c:forEach> loop.
