I got this big newbie question. When i try the following; the 'servlet' turns red and indicates 'Cannot resolve symbol 'servlet'.
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
I got apache tomcat running. I am a very big java newbie. Can anyone help me where to find a servlet library or something ? I googled but got no clear explanation of how to make this work.
This is the content of my web.xml file;

This is my first webapp

<servlet>
<servlet-name>Hello world!</servlet-name>
<description>This is a hello world servlet</description>
<servlet-class>servlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>HelloWorldServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>HelloWorldServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
EDIT: I use the IntelliJ IDEA IDE. And I am using Maven.
