First of all apologies if this is not the correct forum for asking this
question but I have looked everywhere and cannot find the solution.

I have written a scheduling engine in Java which loads up data from a
database using JDBC and whirrs away for anything up to half an hour
calculating a solution, which is then posted back to the database.  I run
this from the command line at the moment but I need to put a graphical front
end to it:

a) set up initial parameters.
b) provide feedback to the user on progress.
c) provide a cancel facility to stop the scheduler.

I was thinking of converting my application to a servlet, and using an
applet in a browser to control it, but I can't see how to get an applet to
provide ongoing communication with a servlet.  All the examples I have seen
show servlets basically returning HTML back to the browser as a one-off
process.

Has anybody got any suggestions as to how I can do this sort of thing?

Thanks

Shaun Campbell
