<%@ page import ="java.util.*" %> <%@ page import ="book.*" %>   arraylist movies = (arraylist) request.getattribute("movieinfo");      if(movies!=null){         for(int i=0;i<movies.size();i++){                     movie b = (movie) movies.get(i);             out.println("<tr>");             out.println("<td>" + b.getmovieid() + "</td>");             out.println("<td>" + b.getmovietitle() + "</td>");             out.println("<td>" + b.getreleasedate() + "</td>");             out.println("<td>" + b.getdescription() + "</td>");             out.println("<td>" + b.getimage() + "</td>");               }         }

look @ movie class definition . packaged inside movie package.

package movie; // full class name movie.movie import java.util.date; public class movie { ...... } 

you should import movie class :

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

even writing java code inside jsp highly discouraged . read how avoid java code in jsp-files?.

for purpose can use jstl's <c:foreach> loop.
