I agree with Nic on the whole, at least when it comes to presenting the
content of the database. But an applet can be a good idea for the
administrator-roles, if the updatings are complicated. It can be a whole lot
easier to program an applet that looks like an ordinary database-form, if
the dependencies etc in the database are complicated, than trying to express
that in a stateless weblike way. It can reduce the amount of
request-response pairs.
