Mod making help?

I just started work on a new mod, going by the tutorials on the minecraft wiki. Everything went fine, work first time. But when I started with the 'creating your first mod' section, where you are instructed to create a mod.myMod.java class, I got an error. The tutorial said it would be fixed later, so I kept going. But at the point where the tutorial said the error would be fixed, it didn't. I tried directly copy and pasting the coding of the wiki, no success. Please help me fix this.

The error: 'Basemod could not be resolved to a type'
(the error is on line 3)
The code:
package net.minecraft.src;

public class mod_myMod extends Basemod
{
public void load() {}

public String getVersion()
{
return "Verion 1.0";
}
}





Thanks!
