thanx for your support.

its ok i've done everything as you told nothing more or less than that.

i've removed stuff from plugins.xml file and didn't run build.xml of hello world.

here i've a doubt.see as i'm working on windows,i can't run "ant deploy-plugins" so from eclipse,i'm running project's main build.xml file.now tell me,did i run main build.xml correctly with the selection of listed 4 options i.e.(1)compile,(2) build-sql,
(3) build-plugins,(4) deploy-plugins.is it ok?

now main question is that i dunno how to do this thing : "After you deploy you will need to add the portlets to a page/tab. Use personalize page link on the top left of the dotcms backend." as you have suggested before.so please elaborate it in as simpler way as possible :)

Thnx,
Barkha Jasani
