May I suggest something...
Being that J2EE is already available in most app servers, and the next
version is just about to have its specs closed upon, why not move full
fledge into a J2EE type of development, where you use JSP pages (instead of
Servlets returning HTML in the code (via response)), and if your up to it,
use a MVC pattern where you have all requests submitted to a single
controller servlet, have that servlet call upon an "action" class, that can
then use EJB to perform the logic (or do the logic right there in your
action class..until you are up to speed and ready to dive in to EJB).
Finally, populate a javabean and forward to a JSP page that uses the
javabean to display dynamic content.
