You might want to post to the OpenLayers mailing list.
Alternately, google for “OpenLayers Tutorial”.
You’ll want to place openlayers in your web directory. GeoServer includes a copy.

In your web pages, you include Openlayers with
<script src=path>
Now that "path" can (and often is) a URL to a completely different site. Eg, you could link directly to Openlayers by making this
src ="http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.12/OpenLayers.js" and not have OL in your war at all.
However, I like to have control over what my JS my page is using, use custom build of OL etc. The simple approach is have OL as a subdirectory of your eclipse WebContent directory. You reference in your index.html in the same directory with src="OpenLayers/OpenLayers.js". A better approach though is have your javascript libraries in a completely separately project. That way you have multiple web projects using the same openlayers library and save yourself a maintenence nightmare. I have a project called JsLibrary in which I place OL (as subdirectory of WebContent) along with a other common JS library. There isnt any need to package a war though you can do so. What you need to do is setup a JsLibrary context on the same http server. When done, you project then references OL through src="/JsLibrarp/OpenLayers/OpenLayers.js".

-create a new web project JSLibrary
-In web content i copy the unziped folder openLayers-2.12
- when i want to refer to it in another web project : src=“/JsLibrarp/OpenLayers/OpenLayers.js”
Is that so?
A very important step is configuring the context /JsLibrary in your web server. I use apache and configure the with Proxypass in the conf.d/conf file.
one more thing : when i imoprt the folder openlayers2-12 to a project, i get a red cross on it like if there are errors in the .js pages. Shall i ignore that
thank you
No idea sorry. I havent used Eclipse in quite a while. But I would ignore it - the ol files work fine.
