Subject: Re: Designing problem
Just wanted to extend this a bit, let's say if I have to build an
application (web database browser) that has many GUI components (like
Swings), this app will need to talk to a webserver to interact with
database, also it has to provide a good GUI. JSP can not do it very well
because it does not have things like Swing and it is hard to build a good
interactive GUI with HTML form base. One way to do this is using applet,
however, if the application gets more complex, then it will cost to download
the applet everytime.
What would be the best way to do this? Is there any example of similar
application out there?
Please let us know. Thanks in advance.

1. You have to use some kind of GUI like AWT or Swing. This can only be
done on the client side either in an applet or in a standalone
application (possibly with sockets). JSP is for creating GUIs, it's for
processing on the server side, typically interacting with a database.
2. If nothing is supposed to be sent to the server, maybe your not even
developing a web application but a normal (AWT/Swing) standalone
application. If you are developing a standalone app, this will not be
the place where you find relevant information.
Start with reading the Swing trail of the Java tutorial
