To Add this Question ...
Even iPlanet web server supported both servlets and JSP..
but still called as web server ....

Well!! Thanks Bhushan! And now, your reply gave rise to another doubt....since web 
servers can serve static content only, why was Java WebServer was called a web server 
by Sun when it can also process servlets?

Thanks

Good doubt dear!!!
Web Server can serve only static content like html, doc, mpeg, etc It cannot process 
any dynamic codes like JSP, ASP, Servlets, etc. To process this files you need some 
kind of engine or you can call application which understands this files. One way is to 
install this engines in web server only like we do in IIS for ASP.

Application server is a full fledge application provider which comes with Servlet 
Container, JSP Engine, EJB Container, JMS, JTS, etc, etc............

Hi all

I have a doubt....What is the difference between an application server and the web 
server?

Thanks in advance.
