This is not really Tomcat specific so I'm marking it [OT]. There are different schools of thought regarding the architecture of J2EE apps. Keeping everything in the JSPs (Model 1) is fine for small projects, prototypes, or projects where you are the only developer. For larger projects, especially ones where you may want a web designer, to change the look and feel of your JSPs, there are clear benefits to moving all non-view code into servlets and beans (Model 2). A Google search on MVC (Model View Controller) will yield all kinds of information on the subject. The Struts site http://struts.apache.org has a lot of good text on the subject. There are some sample apps on http://simple.souther.us. SimpleBean and SimpleMVC both have code that demonstrates the use of beans from within JSPs. -Ben --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
