Hi all; this is probably a stupid question on that list, hope I'll not be tarred and feathered for being way off-topic; but since probably there are some persons around here pretty familiar with certain aspects of Enterprise Java, I'll anyhow kindly ask for comments on the following thing:
I'm currently in the process of recreating a web client granting access to a proprietary document management system. About that, currently I am more or less into specification and drafting of that beast, and, at this point, certain questions arise. * First of all, the client (obviously) needs to have an easy-to-use GUI which (ideally) will be available on all platforms being able to access the site. I'm thinking about using a Java applet right for that, but I'm not completely sure whether this will be appropriate. Otherwise, I'm searching for sort of a framework helping me to rapidly certain parts of the site user interface on the fly, like, for example, a search mask to search for documents classified by given attributes. I'm thinking about also checking out struts for that, but I'm not sure whether this is a work that might be done with struts in a meaningful way. * Basically, then, the web client should almost seamlessly be integrated with a web content management system to provide some static web pages as well as (little) dynamic content. This, currently, is a collection of perl scripts to be migrated to some platform better suited for the job sooner or later. It would be, anyhow, a good thing using more or less the same tool for that which is used for the web client. So, overally: Can anyone recommend such a vast piece of software framework / library / package /whatever, which runs atop java/tomcat, provides both facilities for content management and for quick development of web-gui driven applications? Dunno whether there is something like that, but still would be thankful for any hints.
