It's the same piece of code, assuming you've designed it right. :)  Struts
has nothing to do with reading from the database.

Hopefully, you haven't embedded a bunch of JDBC in your Servlet.  If you
have, now would be a good time to move it out into a separate class (or
layer, depending on how complex it is).  Even better, use Hibernate or one
of the other existing O/R mapping tools.

Once you have a good system for retrieving data, you can use it with any
application, Struts, Swing, or command-line.

Have you installed the examples that ship with Struts?  Particularly, the
'struts-mailreader' example will show you how to accept input from HTML
forms and work with it.

For paging results, I hear good things about DisplayTag
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/ but I haven't used it myself.
