> 1) does anyone know a good book to better learn how to use beans?
Just use them. No books needed. the best thing is to start createing almost
all your classes as beans. You don't need a specific reason to create a
bean. You need a very good reason to create a class that's not a bean. (IMO)

Normally: No problem. You can change the policy of the JVM that's running
your JSP, but in the default case, you're allowed to do anything on the
server. (although calling System.exit() seems like a very bad idea to me ;-)

Make your frameset a JSP page as well, and simply pass all the parameters to
the URL of the specific frame. The index.jsp file becomes something like:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<frameset framespacing="0" border="false" frameborder="0"
cols="20%,800,20%">
<frame name="background_left" target="main" scrolling="no" noresize
src="background_left.htm">
<frameset rows="70,49%">
<frame name="banner" scrolling="no" target="contents" noresize
src="banner.html">
<frame name="main" scrolling="auto" noresize src="frame.jsp<%
String query = request.getQueryString();
if (query != null){
out.print("?");
out.print(query);
}
%>">
</frameset>
<frame name="background_right" scrolling="no" target="main" noresize
src="background_right.htm">
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
</html>
