--------------------------------------

Workaround -- manually edit the web.xml file after its been created/updated to remove extra whitespace from the <servlet-class> element.

> When creating a Servlet using the New File - Servlet wizard in a Dynamic Web Project in a clean workspace, the web.xml file is not properly created.  Specifically, this is what gets generated;
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">
> 	<display-name>
> 	DemoFlaw</display-name>
> 	<servlet>
> 		<description>
> 		</description>
> 		<display-name>
> 		DemoServlet</display-name>

> 		<servlet-class>

> 	</servlet>
> 	<servlet-mapping>
> 		<servlet-name>DemoServlet</servlet-name>

> 	</servlet-mapping>
> 	<welcome-file-list>
> 		<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
> 		<welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
> 		<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
> 		<welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file>
> 		<welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file>
> 		<welcome-file>default.jsp</welcome-file>
> 	</welcome-file-list>
> </web-app>
> The extra whitespace at the end of the start tag <servlet-class> causes the deployment to fail.  This is occuring on 100% of the computers in the Java Web Class that I am teaching.
