Why use real pages? Those are a pain to manage, especially in Java webapps (which are supposed to be sealed applications). Many such systems (think blogs) stash the content in a database (or some other data store) and map URIs to those entries. In turn, accessing a URL merges the content and a static template at runtime. The end-user doesn't know they're hitting a virtual resource and, quite frankly, they shouldn't care. Read up on the "Front Controller," "Page Controller," and "Decorator" design patterns for insight. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net/ tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com/ code scan -- http://www.JxRef.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
