status 500 error to call a servlet from a JSP page

[Matt]

I tried to call servlet from a JSP page, but it has the following
status 500 runtime error:

'.' expected
[javac] import GenerateHTML ;


<%@page import = "GenerateHTML " %>
<%

GenerateHTML obj = new GenerateHTML ();
obj.service(request, response);

%>

public class GenerateHTML extends HttpServlet
{
public void service(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
throws ServletException, IOException
{
//etc...
}
}

any ideas??

<%@page import = "GenerateHTML " %>

You appear to be attempting to import a class from the default package? You
can't do that. Classes must be in explicit packages to be imported.
