Java 6 ships with a web server: com.sun.net.httpserver As Pouyan, you just want to be able to take some basic HTML/JavaScript and server them up from. This can be done from a single servlet utilizing a templating engine aproach. Velocity is great for this, but, again, it's still a lot to take on, given that the needs are modest.
It would be fairly simple to borrow Velocity's macro syntax and substitute properties into templates (merge as they say in Velocity) using Regex. This would also likely easy localization. IMO, best to keep the content separate from mechanics... All content files (HTML/JavaScript) should be editable using HTML editing tools (TextPad!) and viewable straight up. >>* > I must agree with the fact that Struts and similar frameworks >>(Wicket)*>>* > are too huge to be delivered with Freenet.*>>**>>* I have seen >>struts in action...

However the motivation is to implement MVC architecture to have a tidy separation between components responsible for view and those responsible for managing and processing data. Being able to manage JavaScript (e.g. AJAX) is only a side effect. Regards Pouyan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
