DOWNLOADS:  Chapter Download: Writing Java servlets and JavaServer Pages In this chapter from the book SAMS Teach Yourself Java 2 in 21 Days, by Rogers Cadenhead and Laura Lemay, you'll learn how servlets differ from applications and applets, how to run them as part of a server, how to receive data from a Web page form, how to store and retrieve cookies, how to use servlets to dynamically generate Web content, how to create a JavaServer Page, and how to use Java variables, expressions and statements on a page. ADVICE:  Ask Jens Bruntt: Accessing a Domino server using a Java-called URL Dear Jens: I'm trying to access an agent on a Domino server using a URL called from some Java code. I need to authenticate with the server first -- also by using a URL called from Java. I'm finding that the two URLs are opened on different sessions, so the agent doesn't think I have authenticated and fails to run properly. Is there a way that I can authenticate and run the agent in one go, or run both separately but on the same session? Click here to read Jens' expert response.
