Hello John,
<vendor>
The Orion Application Server (http://www.orionserver.com) is free for development
and non-commercial deployment (but we charge for commercial deployment.) It works
nicely under linux and is the server that implements the latest standards. This is
a server that is already running large production sites using the JSP 1.1 and
Servlet 2.2 API.
Try it out for yourself, remember I'm kind of partial ;)
</vendor>
On the IDE front I can't help you much though. Forte is an amazing product and so
is JBuilder. I'm sure both products will be great choices for debugging jsp and
servlet applications very shortly. If Bea doesn't decide to go the closed
proprietary way with Visual Caf� now that they own it, that might also become an
interesting product.
Cheers,
Karl Avedal
