I downloaded a copy of servlet-api.jar from java2s.com. How do I know what version it is? There's no reference on the site.
EDIT
Ah. Apologies. I should have listed the content of the wordpad output when I double clicked on the MANIFEST.MF file in the jar I got:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.6.5
Created-By: 1.5.0_06-b05 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
As you can see it didnt tell me the version hence the question.

you can get it from META-INF, you can explore the content of jar file using win rar or such archiving utils something like.
Name: javax/servlet/
Specification-Title: Java API for Servlets
Specification-Version: 2.4
I personally prefer maven repo to download jar from.
