New to tomcat and jsp

I am trying to learn JSP. So tried to install Tomcat 6. Downloaded the
compressd file and extracted them. I went into the bin directory and double
clicked the startup batch file. When I do that I see the command prompt for
a split of a second and then it just vanishes. I was told that the command
prompt window should remain open. 

What am I doing wrong?

1. Have you installed JDK?
2. Check if you have set JAVA_HOME
3. Run the startup.bat from a command window and see what error it outputs

The installation is pretty straightforward. It used to be a pain in the neck
to set up, but now they made it easier to get up and running. Check out
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/ and for installation:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tom...doc/setup.html

These are two good places to get started with JSP

Thank you all..

I figured it out. I had to set the enviornment variable JAVA_HOME.
