title: How to download servlet 3 dependency that works with tomcat 7
body: <p>i was using servlet 2.5 as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;dependency&gt;
          &lt;groupId&gt;javax.servlet&lt;/groupId&gt;
          &lt;artifactId&gt;servlet-api&lt;/artifactId&gt;
          &lt;version&gt;2.5&lt;/version&gt;
          &lt;scope&gt;provided&lt;/scope&gt;
  &lt;/dependency&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and i want to use servlet 3 since i am migrating to <strong>tomcat 7</strong> so i can use <strong>EL 2.2</strong>, when i added the following dependency, it couldn't be found:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;dependency&gt;
          &lt;groupId&gt;javax.servlet&lt;/groupId&gt;
          &lt;artifactId&gt;servlet-api&lt;/artifactId&gt;
          &lt;version&gt;3.0&lt;/version&gt;
          &lt;scope&gt;provided&lt;/scope&gt;
  &lt;/dependency&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong></p>
