Bluffer's Guide to Java
Can't tell your Beans from your Applets? Wondering
if a Servlet is a small server waiting to grow up? Read our compact guide to Java
and you'll soon be dropping JAR, JVM and JSDK into casual conversations along
with the best of them. Nobody will bother listening to you, but they'll still
be mightily impressed.

Java Server Pages
- JSP: The Back Door into Java
Edward Tanguay discovers JSP, and finds it finally allows him to put his theoretical knowledge of Java to use, and hence, get a foot into the Java programming world.
- Building
Java Server Pages
A detailed look at building JSP pages. Should you
use JSP or servlets? It depends on the ratio of markup to code. Here you'll also
find a guide to the different varieties of tag, and details about the main tags
such as <jsp:useBean> and <jsp:setProperty>.
- Site User Logon with XML, Java Beans and JSP
During this tutorial we will use XML and Java Server Pages to verify a user's logon - and then store the results in a session Java Bean for easy access.
- Serving
Dynamic WAP Content with Java Server Pages
Here's how to create dynamic content for WAP-enabled
mobile phones using the Wireless Markup Language (WML) and Sun Microsystems' Java
Server API. Our Java Server Pages application displays regularly updated appointment
data for someone on the move, such as an appliance engineer making house calls.
- Object
Persistence Made Easy
With object serialization, your Java applets and
applications can save and load the state of objects to disk or over a network.
In this article, we'll examine the benefits of object serialization, and how to
implement it in your own programs.
Servlets
- Intro
to Servlets
Java servlets are making headlines these days, claiming to solve many of the problems
associated with CGI and proprietary server APIs. In this article I will describe
the overall servlet architecture and what you need to develop your application
with servlets. I will use several code examples to show you how to use the Servlet
API, and compare it with CGI and proprietary server APIs where appropriate.
- Internationalizing
Servlets
How to use the Java Internationalization API to build server-side code that alters
its output based on the location and language of the user. We demonstrate the
use of the API by building a simple method which displays a product entry for
a shopping cart application.
- Using
the HttpSession object of the Servlet API
The Java Servlet API represents an elegant and powerful way to shift processes
from client to server, and offers a number of advantages over CGI. These advantages
have certainly been enumerated so that most developers are aware of the servlet
advantage. However, some of the details of the servlet architecture may at first
seem daunting. Here's a short introduction on one aspect of writing servlets:
the HttpSession object.
- Improved
Performance with a Connection Pool
Establishing a connection once and then using the same connection for subsequent
requests can dramatically improve the performance of a database-driven Web application.
Since Servlets can keep information between requests, a database connection pool
is a straightforward solution.
- Servlets
Are for Real!
Servlets are on duty now at a Web site near you.
- Netscape-Flavored
Servlets
How to implement server-side Java using Netscape's implementation of Java within
the Enterprise Server.
