Invoking HTML page inside war file from explorer

I am new to Servlets. I have created a basic HTML createStudent.html. The HTML page invokes a servlet in the form action. I am using Eclipse & Tomcat 6.0. I have deployed the web project on the tomcat server. When I am trying to invoke the HTML page it is not opening.

The project name is com.student and the HTML page name is createStudent.html which is placed @ location WebContent\WEB-INF\.

I am trying to invoke the HTML page with URL http://localhost:8080/com.student/createStudent.html

Am I missing something?

Everything under WEB-INF is not viewable to the outside world. Move it down one directory to WebContent
