Kapil -
Well, servlets can't really do any more for you (in terms of
client GUI) than a Perl CGI... whatever they do on the server
side, you're still sending just text/html back to the browser.
You might be able to hack something almost useable using
JavaScript, but I would NOT recommend going that route.
Your options for real interaction on the client side are
really Active-X or Java applets, both of which will have
problems working bug-free on diff. platforms and browsers.

Hi
I have to port a VB oracle system to Java.
I have a screen that is very interactive like any other VB screen.Like
suppose I select an item from a list then data about that item is populated
in the fields.It also has a lot of buttons which when clicked give pop up
box in which you can fill in values and then submit.
Now I understand that this kind of functionality can be implemented thru
applets.Can this also be done thru servlets and JSP (no applets).Is there a
way to use say java buttons and say list box etc dirctly in servlets or JSP
wothout using applets.
My client doesn't prefer applets.
Bye
kapil
