The folllowing in my entire test case web.xml

<web-app>
 <display-name>jlwi</display-name>
 <description>no description</description>

<servlet>
 <servlet-name>HelloServlet</servlet-name>
 <servlet-class>mil.jlwi.utils.HelloServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
 <servlet-name>HelloServlet</servlet-name>
 <url-pattern>/HelloServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
 <servlet-name>BannerAction</servlet-name>
 <servlet-class>mil.jlwi.utils.BannerAction</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
 <servlet-name>BannerAction</servlet-name>
 <url-pattern>/BannerAction</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

and i am getting the following

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The content of element type "web-app" must match"(icon?,display-name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,filter*,filter-
mapping*,listener*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime-mapping*,welco
me-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-env-ref*,resource-ref*,security-const
raint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*,ejb-local-ref*)".

Thanks in advance for your insight
