Andy: JSP can handle anything HTML can handle plus! Therefore - of course
it can handle a robust UI! We are currently designing one here. I can't
give our code out on the net but trust me - it can do whatever you have the
imagination to do!
BTW: tabing is function of HTML forms (try a test form yourself) where you
can set tab order.
If you use an Applet be aware that they make for a fat client and you are
subjecting your users to long download times each time they try to access
your page vs. a JSP/HTML form which is a thin client (which is what the web
is really for).
You might want to go to any local bookstore and pursue the web design books
and/or check out info on the web on what HTML can do. There are any number
of sites that have "pretty robust" UIs. Just cruse around and set what you
find.

Subject: JSP vs. Applet
Hi:
This is a novice question:
I am developing an "intranet database application" that needs to have a
"pretty robust" User Interface. Example: I have to be able to use full
keyboard control, like tab-ing from one field to another logical field. The
application is like an Invoice Header and Line Item where you can pick a
vendor for the invoice header and pick inventory item for the invoice line -
both on one screen/page.
Should I use applet for this purpose or can JSP handle a robust user
interface? Anyone has an example?
Thank you very much.
Andy Oei
