It looks like what I needed to do after some research was to go to help - install New software - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno and select WEB,XML drop down and select anything dealing with eclipse and web and then the file extensions where available. – Charles Apr 28 '13 at 19:00

You are probably using the standard version of eclipse. (As you are using the default "Java" perspective, not "Java EE".)
The solution would be to download the version of eclipse that has Java EE support. This version will enable you to create Servlets, JSPs and many more through wizards (that's what you seem to be looking for).
Get the current version (Juno SR2) of Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers here: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/junosr2 (choose the version according to your system in a box called Download Links at the right-side of the page).
The wizard will be available then. Also, don't forget to change the perspective to Java EE (in a button at the top of the right-hand side of you eclipse), as it will show your web projects in a better organized way.
