Your source files will go under src. When you create a package, it will set up the appropriate folder structure under that folder for your packages etc etc.

Where you put your classes is optional. You can compile your classes in a "classes" folder.

I create a folder called Web-App to put the web JSP's and configuration files and Web-Inf directory.

Actually, I use the MyEclipseIde plug-in and it builds the project for me and deploys it to the server in the correct format and place. It's well worth the price of the plugin for the features it has. I don't think I've used Ant to deploy a project in years.
