Re: what container will be appropriate for use with web based application?

[Paul Hammant]

Berin,

No client *should ever* call lifecycle members.  Ever.  The client is
not responsible for the lifecycle of the component, the container is.
It is a violation of contracts for that to happen.

Not quite true.

The client-code may host it's own mini component-like beans, for reasons of modularity etc. In the start() method of a real component, it is quite kosher to propogate a start() call to a bean that is in all other senses unknown to the container.
