How to display fields retrieved from a database in Editable mode?

I have a servlet that uses JDBC to connect to Access and reads a table. I need to display the data retrieved from the table on an HTML screen in editable mode. In othe words, the user should be able to change the data that I display on the screen, eg., updating user profile.
I am doing the following but it's not working:
htmlString +="TD>" + dbRS.getString(1) = "</TD>";
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks,

Hi Vineet,
Then you must use a HTML Element that is editable, as an 'INPUT' element.
htmlString +="TD>" + dbRS.getString(1) = "</TD>";
should be replaced with:
htmlString +="INPUT TYPE='TEXT' NAME='"+ dbRS.getString(x) +"' VALUE='"+ dbRS.getString(1) + "' />";
I've also added a NAME attribute to the INPUT element, as you will need this to update your db when the form is sent.
Good luck,
Marius

Thanks Marius for your help. I will try implementing your suggestion.
