Even iPlanet web server supported both servlets and JSP.. but still called as web server ....   viju Well!! Thanks Bhushan! And now, your reply gave rise to another doubt....since web servers can serve static content only, why was Java WebServer was called a web server by Sun when it can also process servlets?   Thanks   S.

Web Server can serve only static content like html, doc, mpeg, etc It cannot process any dynamic codes like JSP, ASP, Servlets, etc. To process this files you need some kind of engine or you can call application which understands this files. One way is to install this engines in web server only like we do in IIS for ASP. Application server is a full fledge application provider which comes with Servlet Container, JSP Engine, EJB Container, JMS, JTS, etc, etc............ -----Original Message----- From: Manikandan Subramaniam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 4:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: which is the cheapest web server in the market....?
