You could use a template engine such as WebMacro. Suppose your servlet
had a Search object in it with method like Search.getResults() that
returns an array of Link objects, which have methods like Link.getAnchor()
and Link.getURL().
In WebMacro you could do a context.put("search", new Search(...)) and
then write this in your HTML template:
<html>blah blah blah
<ul>
#foreach $link in $search.Results {
<li><a href="$link.URL">$link.Anchor</a>
}
</ul>
blah blah blah
</html>
But I'm not sure I fully understand your question. I'm assuming that
by three tier architecture you mean that the browser is the first
tier and that servlets sit on the front of your webserver. In that
case, WebMacro was designed for exactly this purpose. You can
download and use it for free here:
http://webmacro.org
If that's now what you're trying to do, and you have something
different running on the webserver, you could use something like
RMI to access your servlet layer but it's not going to follow
naturally from the servlet API.
