php and java

Ok, First, let me say, I have looked at the manual and searched the past posts but still can't get this to work. I also should say that this is my first time trying to bridge php and java so this may be a stupid question....I have a java class(DateUtil) in a package (testphp). I then took the package and created a jar file from it and put the location of the jar file in my php.ini file with the java settings. In my php code, this code works fine: $java = new Java("testphp"); $currentTime=$java->currentTimeMillis(); echo "The Time is:". $currentTime; but if I try to access my class, I get errors that it can't instantiate non-existent class: $mydate=new DateUtil("testphp"); Am I doing something blatantly wrong? Thanks, Eddie
