Java Support
Java servlet support is now available. Customer who are experienced with
the
development of java objects can integrate this full featured language into
their website's. If you have an interest in developing java for your

Please note that java servlets is a different technology from java applets
or java scripting. Servlets run on the server end while applets and
JavaScript runs on the client end. If you are unfamiliar with Java you may

Java Servlet Support
Java servlets and quite different from java applets.
Applets
are executed on the client (within your web browser) while java servlets
are
launched on the server. Java can interact with your database (MSSQL and
MySQL support available, other database may be available upon demand) and
generate a web based response. Servlets can be compiled and uploaded
directly to the server. This allows for source code control as
precompiled objects are run directly on the server rather than interrupted like
many scripting languages (eg, asp, PHP, jsp, etc.).
If the above statement made no sense to you then servlets may not be for
you. Many success website's still use scripting languages for the majority
of their work. If you are interested in finding out more please visit the
sun Microsystems website.
