Re: Bean-Managed Persistance - Initializing db connection pool
Evan, What you are doing does not seem necessary depending on the server that you are using. Keep in mind that ejbs are of a transactional nature and do not really need to use them to initialize a pool. I am using the Weblogic server and it comes with a pooling feature and I believe most servers do. Some where in your servers configuration properties should be a setting to create a pool. This is will be initialized upons startup. Do create your own solutions. You can then use something like : Properties props = sessionContext.getEnvironment(); String url = props.getProperty("url"); return DriverManager.getConnection(url); to get a connection. Hope this helps.

I want to create an ejb that will provide the initialization and admin routines on a static db connection pool. This ejb will have an initialization routine that will create the db connection pool and place it into the InitialContext. Following startup of the ejb server, an admin routine would be run that would create/initialize this ejb that would then create the db connection pool making it available for other beans to access. Does this sound ok? If there is a standard to adhere to for initializing db connections, I would be interested in a URL that describes it. I am aware of the jdbc objects for "pooling" but what I want to know is the best way to initialize these in an ejb server. Thanks!

Re: weblogic html and jhtml
The weblogic properties files will allow you to set working directories for JSP JHTML classes etc, but there is only one entry for the document root (where the HTML JSP files that you serve live). So you can separate your class files into different directory, but all your serveable files need to be below the document root. Of course this is how html etc works, using relative references.

Re: JSP/HTML Field Validation
My comments relate to the Server vs Client side validation My background includes several years of Forte, which is a three tier client/server environment and language (similar to Java). As such we have had to deal with the issue outlined in your question and I am giving you the take that we use with Forte. Some of the considerations that we take into account when deciding where to place the processing, in this case the validation, is - how complex is the validation, if simple let the client side handle it. - where is the processing power (if it is anticipated that the client machine may be heavily utilized put it on the server. - Likewise if the server is heavily utilized you may what to move it, or a portion, to the client. - The amount of data required to do the validation (i.e. if you have to pass lots of data to the client do not do it) relates to network traffic and speed to load the page. - What is the being validated (i.e. do not validate the user id/password at the client side) - To add some context to using this information Forte has a client side event handler. Thus there is no issues with having anything other than the native Forte on the client. - One thing that can be done in Forte, that I will try in the Java/JSP, is... Forte widgets have an object, that is similar to a vector, such that when the user selects a value (i.e. from a drop list) an associated value is used. (i.e. if the user was selecting 'U.S.A.' from a countries drop list the value that would be transferred to a 'record' would be 1). This could probably be accomplished using beans. I have done something similar, to the above, using servlets, though not in the same event driven manor, but not on the client side. Perhaps someone could comment more on that side.

mailing lists options...
It is great to see all the interest in JSP Servlets, and all the good messages at the lists. The JSP and Servlet mailing lists are the two interest lists with highest subscriptions (check at http://archives.java.sun.com) which is quite impressive, specially considering that we have not been on the front cover of java.sun.com for a while. With the interest comes additional mail traffic. I want to remind people that there are several options to keeping in touch with the JSP Servlet technologies: - register to the jsp-interest and servlet-interest mailing list with usual per-mail delivery. This is best to follow email conversations and to get up-to-the-minute messages. - register to the jsp-interest and servlet-interest mailing lists with digest mode. This way you get a single message a day. There are different digest formats available. I subscribe this way with the standard digest mode so I can do textual searches within the digest (subject lines are usually not very helpful). - register to the jspservlet-announce mailing list. This is a mailing list for announcements from the JSP/Servlet team at Sun, and will post all important milestones and events to this mailing list. An announcement list is not a replacement to an interest list but when we used it for JavaBeans we have found it provides a very useful service. You can register to the mailing lists by email or using your browsers. * Point your browser to http://archives.java.sun.com, and follow the links to your favorite list. * Send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] With a message of: subscribe jspservlet-announce [Your Full Name] or whatever is your favorite list Now back to your regular broadcasting... - eduardo === To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".

Re: JSP/HTML Field Validation
An additional concern for browser based clients is that there's usually no way to ensure that the client code will be executed at all; no guarantees that JavaScript and/or Java applets are enabled. In an Intranet you may have some control over this, but never on the Internet. So even if you do validation on the client (for a more user-friendly interface), you have to do it on the server as well.

Because JSPs are mapped by filename extension, I would bet that this URL ("file.jsp/a") doesn't even get the page correctly, because the extension is supposed to be at the end of your URL. A couple of things to think about: * If you can use "file.jsp?a" instead, then the "a" is available in request.getQueryString(). * If you are talking about servlets instead of JSPs, and you map a servlet to a specific URL, you can get the stuff after the path of the servlet with request.getPathInfo(). For example, if you have your servlet mapped to "/myservlet" and you submitted the URL "/myservlet/a", your servlet would be called, and getPathInfo() would return "/a".

How to compress JSP pages using Content Encoding
Anyone have any ideas how to compress jsp pages using the content-encoding http1.1 header? It turns out that gzip compression works well by default in both browsers. For low bandwidth connections, such as mobile computing, it's a good technique to reduce your traffic by 50-70%. It's easy to do with servlets because you just filter the output through a gzip output stream before sending it back to the servlet output stream, setting the content-encoding header (you can determine when to do this by looking at the accepts-encoding request header). But it's problematic to this with JSP's because you don't have access to the jsp writer this way. The only thing I can think of is using servlet chaining but we can't get that to work in JRun, particularly with redirects.

Evaluating dynamically generated HTML form elements
Hello. I'm in a fix and would appreciate any input that you guys can give me. My JSP engine is Weblogic 4.5.1, running the 1.0 JSP spec. My pages make calls based on user selections on any given JSP to EJB methods (via WrappersBeans) which return relevant data to the next JSP in the application page flow. A certain JSP displays previously entered demographic user data in a legacy database, and dynamically displays this data in a number of form element types. (radiobutton, listbox, or textfield objects - Exist as subclasses[DemographicsComboBox,DemographicsRadioButton,and DemographicsTextField] of the DemographicsField class. I wish to validate the user input in these dynamic form elements. JSP scriplet expressions do not evaluate within my Javascript functions. How can I use Javascript to validate these form elements, or am I missing something here? Can I execute my JS function on the server by 'out.print'ling the jscrpt? I'll appreciate any help I can get.

Thank you. First thing to remember -- JSP scriptlets execute as the page is being created, while JavaScript functions execute as the user is filling out the form. The only thing you can do in your JSP page (scriptlets or not does not matter) is generate the correct source code for the validation function, based on the values you retrieve from the database. Whenever I've needed to generate a customized JavaScript function like this with JSP 1.0, I've used a scriptlet that called out.println() to write the JavaScript source code. When JSP 1.1 based engines become available, I would be more inclined to write a custom tag that generated the correct JavaScript, but 1.1 support is not generally available yet. P.S.
