Hello all,
I'm somewhat new to
applets and web serving in general. I have wrote some code for a JApplet form that is working great. I've used JavaLibrary, WebApplication, and normal
java projects to start my development. with all the new glassfish server technology coming out from SUN i am getting lost in all of the different deployment options. At this point i want to take my basic NewJApplet.java src code and build the necessary .jar or .war file i may need to serve a web page applet, either through html or php or
jsp or
servlets. I also just purchased the Head First Servlets and JSP book written by the original creator of this web site. I get the feeling i don't need this book because of all the new technologies. If someone could lead me in the proper direction. I have jre 6, apache
tomcat, WAMP,
JEE 5 SDK , and these cover most if not all my servers on this machine. My applet needs to show a GUI to the user through java code and already has a
JDBC with a mysql bin connector .jar file helping out, the user enters in information and updates the database with the new record and has accesss to all records at the same time and can ultimately print stuff out. I seem to have most of my troubles relating to web development because inside of the
IDE's (netbeans / eclipse) the applet viewer runs my applet fine and it works with the DB but any attempt to use JNLP or HTML with applet tags just seems to be going nowhere.
thanks,
Patrick
