Well, heres what my servlet does, maybe it will help illustrate what I'm
looking for:
-Takes input from a form, which is to be the IP address of a host
-Does computation on the address
-takes the new address and loads that in the clients browser.

I suppose it can be done all in client side, but I am trying to only use
servlets, since that is the focus of my independant study class.. Thank
you for your advice though :)
