Hi, Everybody!
Could someone, please, advise me on what is the best way to do the
following:

  In my servlet I create a form dynamically, and on submit I want to do :
  1. execute some queries against a DB;
  2. if the result is acceptable,  create a new page with the results,
      otherwise pop up an alert window and don't reload the current HTML
page with the form.

   I see two ways to do it, but I have questions on both of them:
   1. On submit, call a new servlet which will do all DB work and check
results.
       But: how can I pop up an alert window in case of a failure? Can I
call a JavaScript function from a servlet?

   2.  On submit, call a JavaScript function, which should call a servlet or
Java class to do the checking ( is it possible??? ), return true on success
or false on failure (and pop up the alert window).

    Any ideas are greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Marina
