The recommendations for struts, xdoclet and serverside are worthwhile, but let's be honest here. Andrzej is right: the technology you want doesn't exist and the deliverable your boss wants won't happen.
If you're lucky you might find an out-of-the-box solution, e.g. Amazon zshop for the consumer side and a fax machine for the supplier side. On the other hand, if you want to build your own solution then you might consider a more comprehensive framework like OpenSymphony (http://www.opensymphony.com). Even so, you won't meet the deadline. Consider this an opportunity to introduce management to the difference between desire and reality. Labeling a task URGENT doesn't make it achievable.
