You might want to look at using Tomcat in its embedded form, and provide a small main class that discovers an available port, starts up Tomcat, and launches a browser using the port. Your only requirement on the environment would be having a viable JRE installed. (Or you could bundle a JRE with your app, as some do.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
